Healthy Plum Oatmeal Muffins
Moist, fluffy muffins made with fresh plums, hearty oats, and natural sweetness from honey or maple syrup. Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or a healthy dessert.
Ingredients
- 1 cup diced fresh plums about 2 medium plums
- 1 cup rolled oats not instant
- 1 cup whole wheat flour or all-purpose
- ⅓ cup honey or maple syrup
- ½ cup Greek yogurt or applesauce for vegan option
- 1 egg or flax egg for vegan option
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon optional
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin or line with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, mix oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together honey (or maple syrup), Greek yogurt, and egg until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold gently to combine. Do not overmix.
- Fold in the diced plums last.
- Divide batter evenly among muffin cups. Bake for 18–20 minutes, until tops are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for 3 months. To reheat, microwave for 10 seconds or warm in the oven. For vegan muffins, substitute egg with a flax egg, use maple syrup, and plant-based yogurt. For gluten-free, use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend and certified gluten-free oats.
