Fruit & Nut Harvest Muffins

INGREDIENTS

1 cup rolled oats
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup oat bran
1/2 cup organic brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
Add-ins (see below)
2 cups yogurt
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 eggs

1. Preheat oven to 400F. Combine oats, whole wheat flour, oat bran, brown sugar, baking powder, and baking soda in a large bowl. Add optional add-ins.

2. Whisk together the yogurt and eggs in a small bowl. Add melted butter, whisking to combine. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ones, being careful not to over mix (some lumps are fine).

3. Divide batter evenly among 12 muffin cups (I use non-bleached muffin papers to save clean-up time). Bake 20 to 25 minutes, until muffins are golden and firm to the touch. Allow them to cool for a few minutes, then lift them out of the tin and enjoy.

Makes 1 dozen.
