Ingredients
- 1. 1 ½ cups of creamy almond milk
- 2. 1 cup of sweet, homemade applesauce
- 3. Freshly diced apple for a juicy crunch
- 4. A generous half cup of plump raisins
- 5. Crunchy and satisfying pecans, half a cup's worth
- 6. Nutrient-packed flax seed meal, half a cup
- 7. Two wholesome eggs
- 8. A quarter cup of rich brown sugar
- 9. A teaspoon and a half of aromatic ground cinnamon
- 10. Another teaspoon and a half of spicy ground nutmeg
- 11. 2 ½ cups of hearty old-fashioned rolled oats
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and generously greasing a 12-cup muffin tin for easy removal later on.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine a delightful medley of almond milk, applesauce, fresh apple chunks, juicy raisins, crunchy pecans, flax meal, eggs, rich brown sugar, warm cinnamon, and fragrant nutmeg. Gently fold in hearty oats until everything is beautifully incorporated. Allow this wholesome mixture to rest for 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Step 3
Next, using an ice cream scoop for perfect portions, fill each prepared muffin cup with the oatmeal mixture. This step ensures even baking and uniform size for each delectable muffin.
Step 4
Pop the muffin tin into the preheated oven and bake until the tops are golden brown, typically around 20 minutes. Once baked to perfection, let the oatmeal muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes to set before carefully transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This cooling process will help them firm up for easy serving.
Step 5
These delicious oatmeal muffins are a delightful treat for breakfast or a snack, packed with wholesome ingredients and warm, comforting flavors. Enjoy them fresh out of the oven or store them for later indulgence!
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Use airtight containers to store any leftover apple spice baked oatmeal. This will help maintain its freshness and prevent it from absorbing any unwanted odors in the fridge.
- 2. For a convenient grab-and-go breakfast option, portion out individual servings of the baked oatmeal into small mason jars or reusable containers. These can easily be taken to work or school for a delicious and satisfying mid-morning snack.
