I made these delicious and reasonably healthy oatmeal breakfast singles last Sunday. I promptly instagrammed them and had several requests for the recipe, so I figured I better oblige. However, while we’re on the subject of Instagram, if you want to follow me find me at HMBROWN85.
I found this recipe via Pinterest, of course, from Emily Bites.
The really great news about these little muffins? They’re only 3 Weight Watchers points…amazing! And…the hubs didn’t even tell me it tasted like healthy food…that’s even better news! I will give you fair warning that on the 5th day they started to mold which was a bummer. I guess if there’s only 2 of you like our household, you’ll need to share them with others. But that’s ok because that just means they’re not heavy laden with preservatives.
