Everyone knows that nothing beats a bowl of hot oatmeal for breakfast. These muffins are a close second, and you can just pop one in a bag to take along to school. Whether you decide to make them as I did with carrots or personalize them with zucchini or other ingredients you favor, these are a storehouse of nutrition. Believe it or not, they taste delicious, even low-fat!
2 cups whole wheat pastry flour, such as Shibolim White Whole Wheat Flour
1 cup quick oats
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 heaping cup brown sugar
1 and 1/2 teaspoons Gefen Cinnamon
2 eggs
1/2 cup oil
1 and 1/2 cups sour soy milk (see note)
1 teaspoon Gefen Vanilla Extract
3 grated carrots (approximately 1 cup)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).
Mix together flour, oatmeal, baking powder, baking soda, salt, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a large bowl.
Make a well in the center. Pour in the eggs, oil, sour soy milk, and vanilla. Mix just until combined. Add carrots and mix just until incorporated. (Never overmix muffins. Texture, and hence flavor, will be altered.)
Pour into muffin tins lined with cupcake holders, about 1/3 of each tin. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown on top. Remove from pan and let cool.
Yields 14 muffins. These muffins freeze beautifully.

Oatmeal Muffins Can i substitute soy milk with water or anything else?
Hi Sarah. In this recipe you need to do soy milk to make a fake buttermilk. See the note. Water would not do it. That said, it would be passable without doing it that way, but I can’t vouch for how rich it would taste.
