BLUEBERRY, OAT, CINNAMON AND ALMOND MUFFINS

Finding new ways of baking with oats has been my saviour since starting to follow Slimming World. I’ve never really been a fan of breakfast, and I need something really tempting to make me fancy it! I adore oats because they are just so filling, but I find porridge hard to eat. Baked oats are so delicious and these muffins are just yummy! I just love the crunchiness of the almonds on top of these. I don’t add any sweetness into the muffin mix- I like to serve them with raspberries, fat-free yoghurt and some maple syrup, but if you prefer them to taste sweeter you could add some sweetener or fruit syrup/maple syrup into the mix.

I recently bought some vanilla bean paste and it adds such a lovely flavour, but vanilla extract is fine if you don’t have bean paste.

Ingredients

  • 30 g porridge oats
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 5 g flaked almonds
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 egg
  • 50 g fresh blueberries
  • 2 tbsp fat free natural yoghurt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract/vanilla bean paste
  • low calorie cooking spray

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 180°C
  • Mix together all of the dry ingredients (oats, baking powder, cinnamon) and then mix in the egg, yoghurt and vanilla extract.
  • Stir through the blueberries
  • Spray a bun tin with cooking spray (3 of the bun holes) and spoon the mixture between the 3.
  • Place the flaked almonds over the top of the mixture, and spray with low calorie cooking spray.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown on the top and cooked through in the middle

Notes

Please note that if you are eating these on their own (without extra yoghurt/fruit/maple syrup) you may want to add a little sweetener or maple syrup into the mixture before baking- this recipe doesn’t produce a very sweet cake.
