Oatmeal Muffins

A moist, very tender muffin that we all enjoy. I eat mine plain but they are also good with butter or jam. It is surprising how tasty they are without any spices, flavorings or zest but the buttermilk and oats really give this muffin its flavor. Please note that the oats need to soak for 1 hour before preparing the muffins so I've included that in the prep time.

    Simple but delicious. My favorite thing about this muffin is that it's very versatile. It could be eaten for breakfast, as a snack, with dinner instead of bread or biscuits, or as dessert. I often buy buttermilk for other recipes and have a lot left so this is a good recipe to use up the leftover buttermilk. Thanks for sharing!

    Very good recipe. Makes a perfect dozen. I added vanilla and 2 tsp chinese 5 spice. I also added 3 Tbs of wheat germ to increase the fiber and it turned out well. This is a great basic recipe to tweak to your tastes. Next time i think i will add cardamum, nutmeg and cinnamon.
