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.
