ingredients

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup old-fashioned whole rolled oats
  • 1 and 1/4 cups all-purpose flour spooned & leveled
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup 1 stick unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 large egg at room temperature
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blackberries*

instructions

  • Add milk and oats to a bowl, stirring to combine. Allow the oats to soak up the moisture for 20 minutes, until they get puffed up a bit. If the oats don't soak up any moisture in 20 minutes, stir and let sit another 10 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425˚F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with parchment liners or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • Whisk together butter, honey, egg, and vanilla in a medium bowl. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  • Add soaked oats with milk in the bowl and blackberries. Stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Scoop batter into prepared muffin cups, filling all the way to the top. Sprinkle with a few extra oats, if desired.
  • Bake for 5 minutes, then reduce temperature to 350˚F. Bake for another 15 to 17 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Cool the muffins in the pan for about 5 to 7 minutes, before cooling completely on a wire rack.
  • Store at room temperature for up to 2 days, up to 5 days in the refrigerator. See notes about storing above the recipe card.
