Cinnamon Raisin Baked Oatmeal Muffins

This post is sponsored by The Quaker Oats Company

My love for oats began long before I had an oatmeal-centric blog. When we were in high school, my sister and I asked my mom if she could start making us hot breakfasts on cold winter mornings. (As opposed to us making our own yogurt or toast.) The next morning she made us hot oatmeal on the stove top for breakfast using – you guessed it – Quaker Oats. Her recipe was a simple, classic mix of cinnamon, raisins, and brown sugar. (There were no fancy toppings or drippy nut butters in the 90s!)

Oats Across America

Quaker surveyed consumers across the country to learn more about breakfast trends by region. One common thread they found was that Americans feel nostalgic when it comes to breakfast and the dishes they grew up eating. Maybe that warm and fuzzy childhood connection is why I love oatmeal so much now! When asked about oatmeal toppings by region, the Northeast, where my mom is from, listed cinnamon and brown sugar as their toppings of choice compared to the other regions who unanimously chose brown sugar as the favorite. (No one said peanut butter! I’m surprised!) Scroll down to find out how you can share your own recipe to be entered to win a $1,000 prize!

A New Take On A Classic Recipe

These cinnamon raisin baked oatmeal muffins are the 2019 version of my mom’s classic oatmeal. Baked in a single serving, easy-to-reheat muffin cup, you can enjoy them out of hand (muffin-style) or on a plate with a fork (baked oatmeal style). I like mine with almond butter on top!

Ingredients

Cinnamon and raisins are the primary flavors, with mashed banana for sweetness and a touch of vanilla. Brown sugar makes a light dusting across the top of each muffin for added sweet crunch, but you can leave it out if you’d like. The oats on top get a nice crunch to them in the oven!

How To Make Them

This recipe is so easy you can whip these together while your baby eats breakfast! My little helper <3

I love recipes that flow as follows: mix dry ingredients. mix wet ingredients. mix wet into dry. Easy peasy!

Combine dry ingredients in one bowl

Combine wet in another. Then pour wet into dry.

Stir in raisins

Portion evenly into muffin cups

And sprinkle with brown sugar

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

These muffin cups would be fun for a brunch, a picnic, busy mornings out the door, from the freezer – the versatility is endless!

    I have everything I need to make these. Will use pbutter instead of raisins. Question, what do you use to get the calorie count for your recipes? There are times when I need this tool, but have to figure it out the old fashioned way and give my brain cells/math skills a good work out. LOL

    Matt and I really love these! They are not super sweet, which we love as one could leave it as-is or add maple, jam, honey, pb, etc. Thank you for a great go-to recipe!

    These are really good! Tastes like oatmeal banana bread. I dislike raisins, so used pecans. I used paper cups and because there’s no fat, they stuck really bad. I need to invest in some silicone muffin cups and will make them again..
