These breakfast oats berry multi grain muffins is my go to recipe whenever my son craves for cupcakes. Yes we do have our share of indulgence but kids are kids and they really drool over sugary stuff. Candies, cookies , cupcakes , gummies and frosting- you name it and they will want to gobble it all.

I constantly make efforts to keep them to the minimum and rather encourage him to make healthier choices. And you know what he loves these muffins. He doesn’t care what they are made of . All he cares that he got his cuppies that is what he calls them.

Yes it’s possible to satisfy your sweet tooth this way and trust me you will feel better about taking a step forward by making a smart choice. Look at the moist crumb .

So what are these Breakfast oats berry multi grain muffins made of ?

I have used whole wheat flour , chickpea flour , semolina / rawa , ground old fashion oats (oats flour). So no all purpose flour added. 

They are sweetened by raw sugar and addition of fresh berries. I love coconut sugar instead too.

So what makes the crumb so moist and not dry?

I love experimenting with many combinations to make healthier muffins. This time it was orange juice, avocado oil and Silk almond milk . Orange juice adds a hint of refreshing citrus feel to these muffins. Don’t be disheartened if you don’t have any of this available as I have mentioned substitutes for the same that works equally delicious .

We love these cupcakes because they are-

Healthier option

Vegan 

Eggless

Kid friendly 

Portable

Customizable 

Delicious snack

Freezer friendly

These aren’t like your apf / maida , sugar laden cupcakes, hence they are dense. They are not fluffy as the indulging ones. But they are healthier choice,  moist and tender of course . They are not over the top sweet. 

So when I made these today for my son’s play date all the kids really loved it. This is when I thought I have to share this recipe with all you wonderful readers.

Notes

If you don’t have all the mentioned ingredients, given below are equally
successful substitutions.
Substitute almond milk with soy or regular milk .
Substitute half the oil with unsweetened apple sauce
Substitute orange juice with 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice plus ¼ cup water
Skip orange zest if you don’t have a microplane
Substitute raw sugar with coconut or your preferred sugar
Substitute semolina/ rawa/ farine with cornmeal.
Substitute avocado oil with canola or any preferred oil.
Frozen berries work well too. Just bake 2-3 minutes more.
Oats flour is nothing but ground oats . Just pulse your oats in the blender until flour like.
I have used cupcake pan instead of a muffin pan . This recipe yields 10 cupcakes or 6 muffins .

      Hi Chhabi , for the chocolate version you need to add cocoa and some sweetener like banana or date syrup.

    Hi Khushboo,

    I absolutely adore your recipes… I was looking for a carrot muffin recipe and came across this. I will attempt this one but is it possible to substitute some fruits for carrots

      February 25, 2019 at 2:04 pm

      Yes Vidya you may try adding shredded carrots after squeezing out some water or you will have to reduce liquid by few tablespoons.

    Hi Khushboo.. great recipe .. I am keen to make it as is without substituting anything .. to keep it healthy .
    questions .. when recipe says orange juice . should it be home made or store one can be used ?
    are cupcake pans different from muffins pan ..why did you chose to bake in cupcake pan ?
    and is almond flour readily available in stores ?

      October 22, 2018 at 1:53 pm

      If you want to really keep it healthy go for freshly squeezed OJ . Yes cupcake pans are smaller compared to muffin pans. I don’t own a muffin pan so bake it in a cupcake pan . Yes almond flour and not almond meal is ground blanched almonds available in food / grocery stores.

      Hi Archana , this recipe uses berries and the baking soda/ powder is adjusted accordingly. You may use any fruit of your choice like chopped mangoes or kiwi . I haven’t tried altering it without fruit . It would change lot of other things.

    Love this recipe, The muffins turned out spongy and airy probably because I didn’t use a beater and just mixed with a whisk. The sweetness was just right. My batter was little thin than I see in the pictures here, which scared me but they turned out great!!

      I am so sorry Smriti , just woke up and rectified the recipe. it’s 1/4 cup orange juice in liquid ingredients.I don’t know how I missed that. I have mentioned that these muffins are not very sweet. The sweet spurts come from the berries added. You may drizzle some agave or honey while having for breakfast. Muffins aren’t sweet as cupcakes.

    Hi Khushboo,

    Its a nice one!! However I would like to ask you is there any substitute for baking powder and baking soda, as they are just not good for kids health, as advised by most of the doctors. I am trying out to find an alternative for them as even I am into healthy baking, I tried sour curd instead, but the results were not upto the mark. Would appreciate, if you can provide any suggestion.

    Another suggestion, there are at times too bulky images on your page, and the website hangs most of the time. 🙂

      Hi Ruchi , thank you for a feedback. Unfortunately no substitute for baking powder or soda. They are crucial for fluffiness and raising your baked goods. I don’t know who told you that these are bad for health. It isn’t true . You may do more research online. How ever if you are on a low sodium diet you need to watch it’s intake. It’s completely safe. You are not consuming 1 tablespoon at a time. Anything in excess is bad. Most of the Recipes don’t call for more than a teaspoon which is divided further in 10-12 pieces. Hope it makes sense.
      Please check the facts about baking soda again.
      About blog hanging . Thank you for bringing that into notice. The pictures on my blog are compressed and aren’t bulky. Yes there are too many pictures in one post. Just give it time to load before you scroll down. I will try to optimize them more. It opens well here. You may not be on a fast internet network. Check your internet connection with your provider. Thank you.
