Delicious Strawberry Oatmeal Muffins Recipe


Delicious Strawberry Oatmeal Muffins Recipe: These oatmeal strawberry muffins are both sweet and healthy at the same time. A filling oatmeal muffin that is kind of healthy, with sweet strawberries all over it.

It’s springtime outside. The sun is starting to make me feel really happy, and the cherry blossoms are starting to open. I love long walks, picnics, and chill hikes when the weather gets warmer. Oh, and when I think of walks, I think of snacks like these muffins.

The crunchy sanding sugar on top makes them extra tasty, and the rolled oats inside make you feel full for a long time. I love how juicy and jammy strawberries taste with the nutty taste of oats.

Oatmeal muffin ingredients

These oatmeal muffins have all your classic ingredients: butter, milk, sugar, eggs, vanilla, flour, baking powder and salt. Essentially the only thing we’re doing a bit differently is adding oats.

 

Old fashioned rolled oats, sometimes just called rolled oats, are what we’re going to use in these muffins. We’re going to soak them in milk to activate their thickening power and give them a chance to rehydrate before adding to the muffin batter so the oats bake up lighter and fluffier.

Oatmeal muffin variations

You can customize these muffins with any fruit you like! Substitute raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, cherries, even shredded carrots or zucchini. To add some chocolate goodness, stir in 1/2-3/4 cup chopped chocolate or chocolate chips when you add the fruit.
