This is a great recipe for using up leftover cooked oatmeal in the fridge! Perfect for breakfast with just a little butter. I usually put raisins, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves in my oatmeal beforehand, which adds a great flavor to the muffins!

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder and baking soda.
- In another bowl, mix together melted butter, eggs, oatmeal, raisins and vanilla;.
- Add to dry ingredients and stir just until moistened.
- The batter will seem thick, but don't worry. Any time I've added extra liquid the muffins turned out crumbly.
- Spoon batter into 12 greased muffin cups.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 18 minutes, or until the muffin centers are slightly firm.
LEFTOVER OATMEAL MUFFINS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F, and grease a 12-cup muffin tin. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and add-ins. In another bowl, lightly beat the egg. Add the oatmeal to the egg, and mash with a fork to break up clumps. Add the milk and the butter, and stir or whisk to combine. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture, and stir briefly to just combine. Divide the batter evenly between the wells of the prepared muffin tin. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of one of the muffins comes out clean. The muffins won't brown much on top and might even look a little anemic, but that's okay. Serve warm, ideally.
PERFECT LEFTOVER OATMEAL MUFFINS
You might even want to make some oatmeal if you don't have any leftover. I've made this as small bundt cake as well, when my muffin tin went missing, with tasty results. If your oatmeal is on the thin side, use a tiny bit more flour. The nuts, dried fruit/chocolate, and spices are obviously flexible. Cinnamon would be a good addition. Maybe cardamom or ginger?

Steps:
- Mix ingredients, up to and including cranberries, together in a large bowl. Stir these ingredients together very well.
- Mix the last three ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder) in a measuring cup, then incorporate them into the wet ingredients swifty and without stirring past the point that all is combined (as you would do for any muffins).
- Grease muffin tins, cups, or bundt pan (I use Pam baking spray or a very nonstick muffin tin). Fill about 2/3 full, maybe slightly more.
- Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a muffin liner or grease your muffin tin: This will help prevent the muffins from sticking.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
- Let the muffins cool completely before storing them: This will help prevent them from becoming soggy.
Conclusion:
These leftover oatmeal muffins are a delicious and easy way to use up leftover oatmeal. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. They are also a great way to get your daily dose of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. So next time you have leftover oatmeal, don't throw it away! Make these muffins instead.
