Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/3 cup all purpose flour spooned in and levelled
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoons ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats not quick oats
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil

Instructions

  • Spray muffin tins with non-stick spray
  • Sift flour, baking powder and spices into a large mixing bowl and stir to combine.
  • Add sugar and oats and mix well. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl beat egg. Add maple syrup, milk, vanilla and oil and whisk until well combined.
  • Make a well in the centre of flour mixture; pour egg mixture into flour mixture and stir gently, just until combined. Do not over mix. Set aside to let rest for 10-15 minutes to allow oats to absorb some of the moisture.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees while batter is resting.
  • Scoop batter into prepared muffin tins filling at least 2/3 full. Sprinkle with raw sugar if desired.
  • Bake for 5 minutes, then without opening oven door, reduce heat to 350 and bake for 14-16 minutes more, until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to finishing cooling.
