Oatmeal Muffins



It was a plan to bake cookies, then I just thought of placing the batter into my printed muffin cups. So here's why my cookies turned into muffins.

INGREDIENTS:
  • 1/2 cup margarine or butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cup oats
  • 1 small box raisins

DIRECTIONS:
  1. Beat together butter and sugars until creamy.
  2. Add eggs and vanilla and beat in well.
  3. Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
  4. Add to butter mixture, mixing well. Stir in oats and raisins, mixing well again.
  5. Bake 10-15 minutes in 350 degrees F.
Among the benefits of oatmeal in diet include:
-Lowered cholesterol
-Boosted immune system
-Stabilized blood sugar

Then, let's eat this goody I just baked!
