Equipment
Instructions
Prepare the muffins:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a standard muffin pan with paper liners or spray the cavities with cooking spray. Set aside.
- Whisk together the 1 1/4 cups flour, 1/2 cup oats, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.1 1/4 cups whole wheat white flour, 1/2 cup Bob's Red Mill Old Fashioned Rolled Oats, 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt
- In a large bowl, vigorously whisk the 3/4 cup sugar, oil, and eggs until frothy, about 30 seconds. Whisk in the Greek yogurt and milk until incorporated.3/4 cup light brown sugar, 1/3 cup oil, 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup milk

Prepare the streusel:
- Place the 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 cup oats, 1/4 cup brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Add the cold butter chunks and incorporate into the dry mixture using your fingers, a pastry blender, or two forks until the the mixture resembles pea-sized crumbles. Top the batter with the streusel -- you may not need all of it.1/2 cup Bob's Red Mill Old Fashioned Rolled Oats, 1/4 cup white whole wheat flour, 1/4 cup light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
- Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 18-20 minutes or until the tops of the muffins spring back when pressed gently, or a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and cool completely.
Prepare the glaze (optional):
- Place the powdered sugar in a small bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of milk and stir. Add another 1-2 teaspoons of milk depending on the desired consistency. Spoon a bit of glaze over each muffin and allow to set at room temperature. Enjoy!1/4 cup powdered sugar, 1-2 teaspoons skim milk
Notes
- Pro tip: Bake a double batch and freeze half for later!
- Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for 3- 5 days.
- Omit the streusel and glaze for a muffin that's lower in sugar.
