Leftover Oatmeal Muffins

It's National Oatmeal Month........
My friend Jolene, of Jolene's Recipe Journal, asked the Festive Foodies to join her today in celebrating National Oatmeal month.   We love oatmeal around this household so I'm anxious for some new recipes.  Let's see what other's have cooked up for us today........
I am loving all these different flavors of oatmeal.  Especially now that I know I can turn the leftovers into these tasty and easy muffins to enjoy all those flavors a second time around.

      I just had plain, leftover 5 minute oats that we had enjoyed for breakfast adding our own favorite toppings.  I always add dried cranberries and brown sugar so I included these ingredients in my muffins.  You can use any type of leftover oatmeal you have on hand, steel cut and quick work just as well as my 5 minute oats.

      This recipe is very versatile.  Prefer honey as your sweetener?  Go for it.  I made 6 jumbo muffins.  You can make any size muffins you want.

      As always, this recipe is just a guideline and can be made to your liking using whatever ingredients you have on hand.  I love having leftover recipes available because nothing, to me, is worse than wasting perfectly good food.

      However you enjoy your oatmeal try to make sure that you fit it into your diet.  It is a nutritional powerhouse providing you with fiber, protien and tons of vitamins and minerals.  Stay well. Stay Safe. Stay Healthy.
