Equipment

Silicone Muffin Pan

Ingredients

3 cups old-fashioned oats
2 tablespoons light brown sugar , packed
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup milk, any kind (I used 2%)
2 large eggs
½ cup unsweetened applesauce
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1¼ cups peeled and diced apples, any kind (about one large apple or two small apples. A sweeter variety, like honey crisp, works best)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease 16-count muffin cavities with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the old-fashioned oats, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract.
Pour dry ingredients into wet ingredients and stir until thoroughly combined. Gently fold in diced apples.
Spoon mixture into each muffin tin, filling almost to the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until cups are set and golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes in pan. Then remove to a wire rack and let cool completely. Serve with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, if desired.

Notes

Oatmeal cups can be refrigerated for up to five days or frozen for up to three months.
