a few weeks ago, i went to the one of a kind show in toronto and went a little maple crazy! maybe it's the canadian in me, but i love maple syrup.. so when i saw maple mustard, maple butter, maple bbq sauce i had to have it all. instead of simply using the syrup and butter on pancakes, i wanted to incorporate it into my baking. maple oatmeal muffins drizzled with maple butter! it makes for the perfect snack or grab and go breakfast on busy weekday mornings.
ingredients:
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup raw sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cup flour
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 cup quick oats
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- maple butter (for drizzle)
directions:
- preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- in the bowl of a stand mixer mix oil, raw sugar, maple syrup and egg until well combined.
- add vanilla and milk.
- sift in salt, flour, baking powder and quick oats until just combined.
- fill greased muffin tins leaving a little bit of room at the top. bake for 20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
- let cool before drizzling with maple butter. note: if you do not have maple butter, you can make a glaze using maple syrup and icing sugar.
