Quite the contrary, these muffins I made for our painting class will hardly contribute to the feared 'muffin top.' Feel free to add or subtract any of the ingredients, such as the fruit. Recently I have been cooking out of our refrigerator and pantry, trying to use up our 4 bags of sugar and 3 cases of blueberries!
Grocery list:
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1/2 cup raw sugar
- Banana
- Blueberries
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- Ground flaxseed + water (egg replacer)
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1/3 cup coconut oil
- 3/4 cup maple syrup
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Combine oats, flour, baking powder, and walnuts in a mixing bowl. In a saucepan, combine coconut oil, butter, maple syrup, peanut butter, and sugar. Pour oil mixture over oat mixture and stir. Then, mix ground flaxseed with water and add to the bowl, mix well. Add in fruit of choice (banana recommended). I did half with blueberries and half without. Both tasted great!
This recipe is super easy, the ingredients can be substituted for in any which way. Also, if you are not a fan of walnuts, the fruit does a nice job of making up for them!!
This recipe was inspired by a oat cakes recipe in 101 Cookbooks (listed under my 'favorite' tab at the top of the page).
