oatmeal muffins.

oatmeal muffins

Muffin:
1 cup oats
1 cup almond milk
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup organic apple sauce
1 cup organic whole wheat flour
1/2 cup organic flour
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Schmear Filling:
8 oz Tofutti® cream cheese
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon all spice
1 teaspoon vanilla
5 tablespoons coconut sugar




Place oats and milk in a large bowl. Let the oats soak for 30 minutes.

Make the schmear. Beat the cream cheese until soft and smooth. Then add the remaining ingredients and beat until well combined. Set aside. *This schmear is delicious on bagels or toast when you’re having a late night craving for something sweet.

In the same bowl the oats are soaking in, add brown sugar, apple sauce and yogurt. Mix. Add flour, baking powder and salt. Mix batter. Spoon 1/2 the batter into 12 muffin tins. Place a dollop of schmear in the center of each one, then top with the remaining half of the muffin tin with the remaining batter.

Bake for about 20 minutes at 350 degrees.
