Applesauce & Oat Muffins

23.7.12 By Annie N

I’ve had a reply from the new uni! They are still interested in letting me transfer and told me how to do it, unfortunately it means I have to do UCAS again and I hate doing UCAS, it’s a pain in the behind. However, I’m encountering problems already *sigh* clearing has started which means I can’t add choices to my application, it just goes into a big hole with loads of other applications, but because I am going into year 2 I don’t know what I have to do because I don’t need to go through clearing I already have a place, so I’m waiting on emails again and hoping. Why can’t things just be easy?

It seems like Summer has finally arrived in the UK! Although I won’t be going out in the sun as I’m allergic (probably explains the Vitamin D deficiency) and even with SPF50 on I get a horrible rash. So although I’m enjoying it not raining continuously and being able to hang my washing on the line, I’m being an observer of Summer from inside the house πŸ˜›

I can’t actually stand it when it gets too hot, it’s horrible and sticky. I can never sleep and it’s awful when you break out in a sweat picking up a spoon… I’m happiest in Spring I think, not too hot and not too cold… πŸ™‚

I’m sure you’re all well aware by now that I love something sweet for breakfast. Be it fruit scones, raisin bread or a muffin, I have to be in the right mood to have a savoury breakfast and I rarely am so sweet wins for me.

I wanted to make a healthy muffin that would keep me full til lunch time and when I found this recipe full of oats so knew it would be yummy and filling.

Recipe adapted fromΒ Tutti Dolci

Makes 12

Ingredients:

> 1 cup oats
> 1 1/4 cups plain wholemeal flour
> 1tsp baking powder
> 3/4tsp bicarbonate of soda
> 1tsp cinnamon
> 1 cup applesauce
> 1/4 cup milk
> 2tbsp vegetable oil
> 1 egg white
> 1/3 cup light brown sugar

Method:

> Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C and line a standard muffin tin (USA) or cupcake tin (UK) with 12 cases.
> Place the oats, flour, baking powder, bicarb and cinnamon in a large bowl.
> Add the applesauce, milk, oil, egg white and brown sugar on top of the dry ingredients.
> Mix until well combined. It will be a sticky, lumpy mixture. I know, doesn’t sound too appetising right now!
> Split the batter between the 12 cupcake cases, I use an ice cream scoop to ensure even distribution :).
> Place in the oven for 15 minutes, until a skewer comes out clean. Remove from tin and place on a wire rack. Leave to cool completely before storing. Will keep in an airtight container for up to 4 days. You can also warm them slightly and put butter on before serving if you like, but I like them plain πŸ™‚

    @Baking Addict Thanks so much πŸ™‚ It's annoying as I already have a place, but I'm not happy there. I can't wait for it to be over either! In fact I'm considering not going back & just getting a job!
