Peanut Butter Oat Muffins

Peanut Butter Oat Muffins are made with oats and no flour! Find the recipe on Shutterbean.com

New recipe alert!  Peanut Butter Oat Muffins

I haven’t been eating bread since August (I’ll tell you more about that later) and have been on a journey to find something for breakfast that satisfies my muffin/toast craving and here we are!  Peanut Butter Oat Muffins- a recipe that uses oats as a flour base.

  I saw this on Lifehacker last week, had all of the ingredients and I’ve made them twice since.

I’ve been enjoying them warm with a pad of butter sandwiched in the middle for breakfast.

They’re lightly sweet and have almost a cornbread texture and I’m super into them. It’s like a cornbread/muffin/oatmeal hybrid. They’ve already made their way into meal prep. 

That means I’m impressed.
