A whole grain, low-sugar muffin you can enjoy for breakfast or snack and feel good about feeding the kids. Made with oat flour, apple sauce and dried cherries.
Happy Friday!
Weekends are for baking – yes even in the summer! I try not to use my oven as much during the warmer months but I love roasted veggies and healthy baked goods too much to stay away.
Everyone needs a good muffin in their life made with ingredients that are always on hand.
For me that is eggs and rolled oats so these are made with just that! I threw some dried cherries into the mix for a seasonal touch and these were ready to eat.
These are made with whole grain oats so they are rich in fiber for staying power. Apple sauce and a little bit of maple syrup were my sweeteners of choice. Just enough to sweeten them without being overpowering.
That’s what makes these a great breakfast or on-the-go snack option.
