1 cup rolled oats
1 cup buttermilk (I usually just put some lemon juice into milk then let sit before use)
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup applesauce
1 egg
Place oats in a small bowl, pour in buttermilk. Let sit for two hours at room temperature.
Preheat oven to 375. Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners. In a large bowl, stir together whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda and brown sugar. Stir in oat/buttermilk mixture, applesauce and egg; mix well. Pour batter into prepared muffin cups.
Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into center of muffin comes out clean.
Optional:
dried cranberries; soak in water for about 1/2h then add to batter
