Baked Oatmeal Cupcakes P3 Recipe

1

Ingredients

(makes 24-25 cupcakes)
5 cups rolled oats (400g)
2 1/2 cups applesauce
1 tsp salt
5 NuNaturals stevia packets
optional: 2/3 cup mini chocolate chips
2 2/3 cups water (640g) (If using the liquid-sweetener option, scale water back by 1/3 cup.)
1/4 cup plus 1 tbsp oil (45g) (I really like coconut oil)
2 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

optional add-ins: cinnamon, shredded coconut, chopped walnuts, ground flax or wheat germ, raisins or other dried fruit, etc.

Preheat oven to 380 F, and line 24-25 cupcake tins. In a large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients and stir very well. In a separate bowl, combine and stir all wet ingredients (including Applesauce) Mix wet into dry, then pour into the cupcake liners and bake 21 minutes. I also like to then broil for 1-2 minutes, but it’s optional. These oatmeal cakes can be eaten right away, or they can be frozen and reheated for an instant breakfast on a busy day.
