Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat and Prepare

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

Lightly grease a muffin tin with avocado oil or line it with muffin liners.

2. Soften the Oatmeal

In a bowl, combine the oatmeal with the warm milk. Stir to mix and let it sit for 5–10 minutes to soften.

3. Prepare the Apples

While the oatmeal is soaking, peel, core, and chop the apples into small cubes. This ensures even distribution in the batter and a pleasant texture in the muffins.

4. Mix the Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, vanillin (or vanilla extract), and eggs (or flax eggs if vegan). Mix until well combined.

6. Fill the Muffin Tin

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.

7. Bake the Muffins

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
