For the Muffins

  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients: oats, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk until fully combined.
  3. In another bowl, mix the wet ingredients: applesauce, milk, melted butter, and vanilla. Stir until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  6. Bake for 23-25 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  7. Let cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring muffins to a wire rack.
