Lower Fat Oatmeal Cinnamon Muffins

I saw this recipe on veniceforever's blog and had to try it! The only change I made was that I added 1/4 c Pumpkin Pecan Butter, because I had it left over. She suggested adding 1/3 c mini chocolate chips, which I think would be delicious as well. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

1 c milk  

1 c quick cooking oats

1 c all-purpose flour  

1/4 c white sugar

2 tsp baking powder  

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp cinnamon

1 egg

1/4 c canola oil

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.

2. In a small bowl, combine oats and milk; let soak for 15 minutes.

3. In a separate bowl, beat together egg and oil; stir in oatmeal mixture. In a third bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Stir flour ingredients into wet mixture until combined. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups until cups are 2/3 full. 

4. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
