Oatmeal Raisin Muffins

Adapted from Anne Lindsay recipe.

I'm the first to admit I'm not a great baker, nor do I aspire to be. That said, I do like successful outings, and this recipe is easy, and super tasty. I'm lazy in the mornings, don't feel like fussing during the week, so these are perfect, along with a smoothy and a piece of fruit. 

Combine 1 cup rolled oats (I used 9 grain) and 1 cup buttermilk, let stand 10 minutes.

In separate bowl, combine 1 cup whole wheat flour, 1 tbsp. bran, 1 tsp cinnamon (plus I added some cloves and nutmeg), 1 tsp baking powder, ½ tsp baking soda, ½ tsp salt, approx ½ cup raisins (plus I added a few dried cranberries).

In separate bowl, combine ½ cup grapeseed oil, just over ¼ cup brown sugar, and 1 egg.

Add all to rolled oats mixture, spoon into muffin cups (plus I topped each muffin with a pecan!), bake at 375 for about 22 minutes – makes 12 muffins. Yummy!
