Raised Oatmeal Muffins

Start your morning with the wholesome goodness of Raised Oatmeal Muffins, a delightful blend of hearty rolled oats, warm honey, and a subtle yeast-inspired rise that sets these muffins apart. These unique muffins begin with the oats soaking in milk for a tender texture and rich flavor, while active dry yeast lends a bakery-style lightness to each bite. Perfectly sweetened with a touch of honey and sugar, they strike an irresistible balance between sweet and savory. With a golden-brown finish and a soft, airy crumb, these muffins are ideal for breakfast, brunch, or a comforting snack. Serve them warm with butter, jam, or an extra drizzle of honey for a satisfying treat that's both rustic and refined.

Ingredients

• 1 cup Rolled oats
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) Active dry yeast
• 0.25 cup Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large Egg, lightly beaten
• 2 tablespoons Honey

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats and milk. Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes to allow the oats to soften.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, dissolve the active dry yeast in warm water. Add 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar and let sit for about 5 minutes, or until the mixture becomes frothy.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar.

Step 4

Add the softened oat and milk mixture, the yeast mixture, melted butter, beaten egg, and honey to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

Step 5

Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and allow the batter to rise in a warm, draft-free place for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.

Step 7

Gently stir the batter to deflate it slightly, then divide it evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 8

Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until they are golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. They pair wonderfully with butter, jam, or a drizzle of honey. Enjoy!
