How To Make Oatmeal Cinnamon Muffins
It’s not hard at all to make a batch of these cinnamon oat muffins, but you need to follow a few steps to achieve the best fluffy texture.

- For these oatmeal cinnamon muffins, you first need to soak the rolled oats with almond milk and apple cider vinegar for 20 minutes. This step is not optional. It softens the oats and ensures fluffy oatmeal muffins that are not dry.
- Meanwhile, prepare the oat crumble. In a small mixing bowl, add softened unsalted butter, coconut sugar, flour, and oats.
- Use a fork to mash the butter into the dry ingredients, then use your fingertips to rub the ingredients together until a crumbly topping forms.
- Set aside in the fridge.
- Next, in a large mixing bowl, whisk all the remaining dry ingredients: flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In another large bowl, whisk applesauce, oil, vanilla extract, and maple syrup.
- When the oats have soaked for 20 minutes, it’s time to preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Line a 12-hole muffin pan with paper liners and lightly oil with cooking spray. Set aside.
- Finally, to make the muffin batter, fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, including the milk mixture made in step one.
- Stir until a lightly thick oatmeal muffin batter forms.
- Fill the muffin tin evenly with the muffin batter and bake the muffins for 5 minutes in the center rack of the oven at 400°F (200°C). I like to prebake these muffins for 5 minutes at a higher temperature. This ensures ultra-fluffy oatmeal muffins.
- Reduce the oven to 350°F (180°C). Keep baking for 15 to 17 minutes, until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted in the center of the cinnamon oatmeal muffins comes out clean.
- Cool down in the muffin cups for a few minutes, then release them on a cooling rack to cool completely at room temperature.
Presenteren
These oatmeal cinnamon muffins are good cold or lukewarm, plain or with a drizzle of:
- A drizzle of nut butter like peanut butter or almond butter.
- Jam like strawberry jam, marmalade, or blackberry jam.

- A sprinkle of extra cinnamon on top.

Opslag instructies
You can store the muffins in an airtight container or sealed cake box and place them in the refrigerator for up to 4 or 5 days.

Allergie-uitwisselingen
Below are some options to adapt this recipe if you have some food allergies.
- Appelmoes ruilen – Replace the applesauce with one flax egg: stir one tablespoon of golden flax meal into three tablespoons of lukewarm water. Set aside for 10 minutes until thick and add to the recipe instead of applesauce. You can also use 1/4 cup of mashed bananas instead of applesauce.
- Zonder Noten – Replace almond milk with any nut-free milk like coconut milk or oat milk.
- Glutenvrij – Voor een glutenvrije versie, gebruik mijn recept. Omrekeningsgids voor glutenvrije producten.
- Plant-based butter swap – The topping uses plant-based butter. This can be replaced by coconut oil.
