Oatmeal Cinnamon Chip Muffins is a recipe from one of my very old and well loved cookbooks, Glamour Magazine's Gourmet on the Run. My aunt gave me the book back in the '80s as a graduation present. It may be from the '80s (the copy sure reflects it), but the recipes are all very appealing even today. I guess the book was branded "Glamour" but the editors behind the scenes were from more culinary publications. I'm not really sure, I've just always been impressed with how much this little book has to offer.

Six Oatmeal Cinnamon Chip Muffins

This is a small batch recipe yielding six muffins. I sometimes fill the muffin tins a little higher and make five. The cinnamon chips are perfect with the oatmeal, but the muffins are good with all flavors of chips or just berries and nuts. It's a pretty versatile recipe. The one in the photo below was made with fresh blackberries.

The muffins aren't too sweet, so just about any sweet add-in will make them perfect.

    cinnamon chips are the best thing since wrapping-free caramel bits...or have they been around longer? either way, they're spectacular! i'm always looking for new ways to use them, so i'll be trying these muffins out immediately!

    Wow, a muffin recipe that doesn't call for milk! I'm not lactose intolerant or anything, I just don't like milk. This recipe is a keeper!

    How nice that Fuzz is appreciating your muffins.

    Speaking of appreciating your baked goods. I made the Masterpiece White Chocolate Chunk Cookies again. I'm taking them to share on the retreat I'm attending this weekend.
    I'll try not to mention it publicly every time I make them, but they are so good, and I'm so appreciative of your web site, and cookie baking abilities. So, thanks again!!
