How to Make Oatmeal Strawberry Muffins
To make these fruity muffins, preheat your oven to 350 degrees and prepare your muffin tin with non-stick spray or liners. I love liners for ease of cleanup.
Combine the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, oats, baking powder, and granola. Mix them well to remove lumps before adding the strawberry pieces and jam.
Next, make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add softened butter and eggs. Mix gently until everything is combined but be careful not to overmix.
Scoop the batter into the muffin cups and bake for 25-30 minutes until the centers are done.
Make a glaze by combining the powdered sugar and milk. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled muffins.
Tips For Making Muffins
Tip 1: Overmixing the batter can make the muffins tough. Gently fold the wet and dry ingredients until just combined.
Tip 2: Make sure your butter is softened at room temperature for easier mixing.
Tip 3: To check for doneness, insert a toothpick in the center of a muffin; if it comes out clean, they are done.
FAQs For Strawberry Oatmeal Muffins
Yes, you can use frozen strawberries in your recipe. Before you add them to the batter, you'll want to be sure that they are fully thawed. This will help the batter from becoming too watery.
After thawing the strawberries, drain any excess liquid. Using frozen strawberries can be an easy alternative, especially when fresh strawberries are out of season, or you don't have any on hand.
To keep these strawberry muffins tasting their best, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. To store them for longer, you can freeze them. Wrap each muffin in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, then place them in a freezer-safe bag.
Muffins can be frozen for up to a month. When you're ready to enjoy them again, just thaw them at room temperature or warm them in the microwave.
Recipes to Make With Oats
Oats are not just for breakfast! They are incredibly versatile and can be used in a number of dishes. But it's not just about the variety of recipes; eating oats comes with a lot of health benefits. You'll want to be sure to keep this healthy ingredient in your pantry.
