Apple Oatmeal Muffins


It's apple season!!!!! I don't know about you, but I can't find enough recipes for apples. I love them!  I just made these this morning and they're so good. The original recipe didn't call for apples but I thought they'd be a great addition.....and I was right!


APPLE OATMEAL MUFFINS
Makes 12 Muffins
1 Muffin = 3 PointsPlus™


1 cup quick-cooking oats
1 cup low-fat buttermilk
1/4 cup fat-free egg substitute
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup light butter, melted
1 apple, cored/peeled/chopped
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
All of the ingredients except for the apple which was an afterthought.

Preheat oven to 400º. Spray muffin pan. Set aside.

Mix oats and buttermilk in a large bowl. Allow to rest for 15 minutes.





 
In a small bowl, combine egg substitute, brown sugar and melted butter. Add this mixture as well as the chopped apple to the oat mixture.
 
 


 



 

In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cimmanon and salt. Stir this into the oat mixture until just combined.


Fill each muffin 'cup' 3/4 full.



Bake for @18 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.


Cool in muffin pan for 10 minutes; remove from pan to a rack to cool completely.

Mine!
