Oatmeal Raisin Muffins

Print Recipe

Soft and moist oatmeal raisin muffins made with hearty oats and sweet raisins, perfect for a wholesome breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) milk
  • 1 cup (90 g) rolled oats
  • 1½ cups (190 g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (100 g) packed brown sugar
  • ¼ cup (50 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) vegetable oil (or melted butter)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup (110 g) raisins

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 °F (190 °C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the milk and oats. Let sit for 10 minutes to soften.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Add the oat-milk mixture and the egg mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined—do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the raisins until evenly distributed.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For extra tenderness, use quick oats instead of rolled oats.
  • You can swap half the oil for applesauce to reduce fat.
  • Stir mix-ins (like chopped nuts or chocolate chips) in gently to avoid dense muffins.
  • Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
