Very nice, although the nutmeg flavour is rather strong! I omitted the egg, as I usually do with muffin recipes, and scaled down to make 6. This recipe made very small muffins, and they didn't rise up very much, probably because I didn't use the egg. Next time I'll make this with 1 teaspoon (for 6) baking powder, and cinnamon. -
Good! Healthy:) I served it with jam and maple syrup, gone in minutes:)!! -
These are good. I doubled the recipe and used self-rising flour, regular oats, 1 t vanilla, 3/4 c sugar, 1/4 t salt and just cinnamon - no nutmeg. -
Although simple and quick to put together, these left little in taste. I followed the recipe exactly. Needs something in flavor. Although they made 12 muffins they were quite small. I will make these again and add in more spice and perhaps some vanilla or almond extract. Thank you for s quick put together. -
These were good but I did change it up some due to other reviews. I added 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and think it could have used a bit more. I also used milk instead of water. I used paper and these really stuck to them. Next time I would put them right in the tin and spray with Pam. I only got 8 muffins too which was disappointing. I cooked mine at 400 for 20 minutes and they came out nice.

This is very similar to a recipe I have, but instead of water I use milk and I use vegetable oil instead of canola oil. I make them all the time and it's a big hit with my family! -
These are great, filling little muffins! After reading the other reviews, I made a few changes before making the first batch. I used whole wheat flour for half of the flour amount. I added 1/2 tsp. of baking soda and replaced the oil with applesauce. I increased the amount of cinnamon to 1/2 tsp. and added 2 tbsp. each of craisins and mini chocolate chips. I only needed to bake them for 12 minutes. The muffins were a little dense, but they rose well and tasted great!

Very tasty, moist, light muffin. Used applesauce instead of the oil. The only thing I would change would be to add more spice. Overall, this was extremely easy to put together and extremely easy to eat! -
I made these muffins for my daycare kids, but made several changes. I used 3/4 cups sugar, 1 1/2 cups oats, 1/3 cup canola oil, 1 tsp vanilla and 1 tsp pumpkin spice in place of the nutmeg/cinnamon. Not a muffin was left. Kids loved them and asked that I make them again!!!

Still in West Virginia but we've moved a few miles away, down to the county capitol. It's a compromise: bigger than our last town but smalelr than the "big city" of Cumberland MD, right up the road. Jobs are not that plentiful here so I am fortunate to be able to work at home (I'm a writer). My passion is cooking and feeding people family well....my pet peeve is the family court systems in America......my love is for emergency medicine and the people that make survival in a crisis possible
