Ingredients:

• 3 1/2 cup oats
• 1 Tbsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 1/2 cup pecans, chopped (I didn't use)
• 3/4 cup applesauce (I was a little short on applesauce, so I added 1/2 of a small apple, chopped)
• 1/2 cup sugar (1/4 cup Truvia brown sugar blend)
• 2 eggs
• 2 Tbsp finely shredded orange peel (can use lemon instead)
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 cup milk
• 2 1/2 Tbsp butter, melted (I omitted this and used water instead)
• 1/3 cup sugar, mixed with 3/4 tsp. cinnamon (1/6 cup Truvia brown sugar blend)

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Put oats into food processor and process until they are a flour-like consistency.

3. Put the oat flour into a large bowl. Add baking powder, salt, nutmeg and pecans, if using. Mix well.

 
4. In another bowl, mix the applesauce, sugar, eggs, orange peel, vanilla and milk.

 
5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

 
6. Pour the batter into greased or paper-lined muffin tins. Fill 3/4 full. Fill unused tins with water. Bake 14-18 minutes.

7. While still warm, dip the tops into melted butter and then into cinnamon-sugar mixture. If omitting butter, brush lightly with water, and then into the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
