I hope you enjoy them when you do try them.
These look delicious! It’s been a while since I’ve had oatmeal raisin anything. Now I wanna run to the store and get the ingredients to make this. Thanks for sharing, I’m going to save this and make it for breakfast someday.
They are really good. Haha, I feel the same way every time I see a good looking recipe, I want to make it right away.
Looks like a nice recipe to try and maybe it could be adapted to have something other than the raisins too as there are some in our family that don’t like them.
Yes, it can be adapted to other things. We have made them with dried cranberries and other dried fruit and they turn out well.
What a wonderful recipe! Thank you I am always looking for easy to make muffins!
You’re welcome! Easy muffin recipes are the best.
Yum! Muffins are the perfect little cakes!
Agreed. It’s why they are one of my favorite things to bake.
Mmmm! Your muffins always look so scrumptious. These oatmeal raisin muffins look like comfort food for sure. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you. Muffins are comfort food for my family which is why we make some almost every week.
I’m not a big fan of raisins but I bet if I exchanged them for chocolate chips this would be great. The recipe seems easy enough for me. Thanks.
You know, I have made them with chocolate chips as well and they were fantastic, so definitely give them a try that way since you aren’t a fan of raisins.
These muffins look so great. I love the oatmeal raisin combo. I’m dairy free, do you think they would turn out well if I substituted buttermilk with apple sauce?
I would imagine that substitute would work. You may need to play around with the amount of applesauce a bit but I would imagine the taste would be great.
Perfect for a breakfast and healthy.
Yes, they are.
