Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Muffins

It has been a while since I posted some muffins. Not that I haven't been baking, but I don't always get the chance to take photos before they are eaten!!


Muffins are always very popular with my friends and family!!

I was in the mood for an oatmeal muffin. I was also in the mood for a chocolate muffin....


So, baked some Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Muffins!!

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Muffins
from allrecipes.com

1 1/4 cups quick cooking oats

1 1/4 cups milk (used low fat)

1 egg

1/2 cup vegetable oil (used canola)

3/4 cup packed brown sugar (used a little less)

3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1 cup chopped pecans (didn't use)

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

4 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

 

Directions

1. Combine oats and milk and allow to stand for 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Grease each cup of one 12-cup muffin tin.
2. Stir egg, oil, 1/2 cup of the brown sugar, chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of the pecans into the oat and milk mixture.
3. Combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add oat mixture to flour mixture, stirring until just moist. Fill each cup of one 12-cup muffin tin 2/3 full. Sprinkle tops with the remaining brown sugar and pecans.
4. Bake at 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) for 20 to 25 minutes.

I baked mine at 375F for about 22 minutes.
