Honey Oatmeal Muffins

Source:  Cousin Dolores Dawn

This is a recipe from our family cookbook contributed by my first cousin, Dolores.  My mom used to call her DO.  She currently lives in Arizona.  This is a nice muffin to have for breakfast along with some fruit.  The raisins and nuts add texture, sweetness, and flavor.  

2/3 cup milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup honey
1/3 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1 cup flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats (not instant)
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup chopped nuts

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. 

In a medium bowl, mix milk, vegetable oil, the egg, and honey.  Add brown sugar and mix until blended.

In a small bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture and stir just until combined.  Gently stir in oats, raisins, and chopped nuts.

Fill 12 greased or paper-lined medium-sized muffin cups 2/3 full with batter.  Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown. 

Makes 12 muffins.
