New recipe alert!  Peanut Butter Oat Muffins

I haven’t been eating bread since August (I’ll tell you more about that later) and have been on a journey to find something for breakfast that satisfies my muffin/toast craving and here we are!  Peanut Butter Oat Muffins- a recipe that uses oats as a flour base.

  I saw this on Lifehacker last week, had all of the ingredients and I’ve made them twice since.

I’ve been enjoying them warm with a pad of butter sandwiched in the middle for breakfast.

They’re lightly sweet and have almost a cornbread texture and I’m super into them. It’s like a cornbread/muffin/oatmeal hybrid. They’ve already made their way into meal prep. 

That means I’m impressed.

    These sound delicious! You might enjoy these apple muffins from Pinch of Yum https://pinchofyum.com/feel-good-apple-muffins. I think they’re wonderful.

    These look totally yum and I have a couple of bananas at home that need to be used up. Yay!

  • Amy

    I made these this morning…they’re tasty! So fast to mix together and using ingredients I always have on hand.

    I’m out to get some marked down bananas!

  • Linda

    I was wondering about oat flour, too, so thanks you for the answer.

  • Sandy

    These were delicious., I also made them with some variations. I used oat bran,1 egg and 2 egg whites, monk fruit sweetener, 2 tbsp applesauce, vanilla, and 1/2 cup blueberries, plus the other ingredients. I have also substituted the berries with 1/2 cup chopped apple or 1/2 cup grated carrot.

  • Kate

    I just made these and had one warm out of the oven and they are so yum, Tracy!

  • Carrie Kelleher

    Do I have to use oats in food processor. I don’t have one. Just wondering…

    • Tracy

      You can buy oat flour already made. This is just a way to do it without having to buy some and use what you already have. You can also sub out flour with it.

    Great recipe! The flavors are perfectly balanced and delicious.
