Ingredients
- 3/4 c. old-fashioned rolled oats
- 3/4 c. whole-wheat flour
- 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. ground coriander
- 3/4 tsp. salt
- 1/2 c. honey
- 2 tbsp. honey
- 1/2 c. buttermilk
- 1/2 c. canola oil
- 2 large eggs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl, mix the oats with the whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, coriander, and salt.
