- 1/2 cup quick-cooking or old-fashioned oats
- 1 teaspoon baking powder

- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup finely chopped dried apricots
- 1 tablespoon quick-cooking or old-fashioned oats, if desired
Preparation
- Heat oven to 400°F. Grease bottoms only of 6 regular-size muffin cups with shortening or cooking spray, or line with paper baking cups.
- In medium bowl, mix flour, 1/2 cup oats, the baking powder and salt. In small bowl, mix brown sugar, milk, oil, vanilla and egg with fork or wire whisk until blended.
