Do you need perfectly easy and delicious muffins that your kids will eat and request again and again?
Some mornings you just want to be that iconic Mama, with the apron tied on and the piping hot tray of hot muffins in your hands. Healthy and completely homemade muffins, of course, I shall add. Well, guess what, you could be that Mother.
This recipe is so easy and so quick, and your house will smell delicious and inviting in no time.
These muffins are the perfect substitution for a breakfast on the go or a midmorning snack. In our house, I find it crucial to keep the freezer stocked with whole grain muffins. That way my teenage girls and even my little ones can grab a quick breakfast (zapped in the microwave) when they’re running for the bus. And even when they’re running on time, they take them as a filling snack (or lunch) for later in the day. I like to place them in individual bags and freeze them so that they are literally grab and go.
P.S. I find myself doubling and tripling the recipe all the time. That good.
- 1 cup white whole wheat flour
- 1 cup quick oats
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder

- ½ teaspoon salt

Can I use whole wheat flour ( leftover from the 5grain challah which was amazing btw) instead of white whole wheat ?
Yes
What can I use instead of applesauce? Dont have any in the house…
The applesauce replaces the oil and sweeter, but not sure how much to adjust.
I usually triple the recipe and use 1 cup honey and 2 cups applesauce. I have also replaced the chocolate chips with frozen blueberries.
Made these and added a banana and some flax seed meal to the recipe and they were delicious!
Tried these with Spelt and equally delicious!
Hi, can I substitute the whole wheat flour for almond flour? Thanks
Hi, do you use unsweetened or sweetened applesauce? Thanks! Looks yum!
Unsweetened applesauce
Hi, Can you make this without using a mixer? Thanks!
Yes sure. Mix dry ingredients well and then add in the wet ingredients.
Can I use original oats instead of quick cook oats?
Can I use old fashion oats instead of quick cook oats?
Yes
I make these all the time! The best healthy muffins. I have substituted almond flour, and various other ingredients and it always comes out great. My favorite add ins are white chocolate chips and chopped almonds.
Any ideas how to store them in the freezer for an easy way to grab one at a time?
You can place them individually in small bags.
