A grab-and-go muffin that will fill you up and leave you ready to face the day on those busy mornings. Each muffin is only 176 calories and 15.4 grams of sugar!
I mixed my muffins up in my stand mixer so I just combined everything all at once and let it mix for three minutes.
If you don't have a stand mixer, start by mixing together the flour, oats, soda, Carnation Breakfast Essentials® powder, and the cocoa powder in a large bowl.
Add in the coconut oil, eggs, applesauce and milk.
Add the cranberries and mix until well combined.
Line a muffin tin with paper liners and lightly spray the liners. Fill the liners ¾ of the way full.
Top each muffin with about a tablespoon of Mini Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels.
Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the middle of the cupcakes.
When cupcakes are done, remove from oven, cool 5 minutes and remove from the muffin pan.
Cool on wire rack.
Notes
In place of cocoa powder, you can add another packet of Carnation Breakfast Essentials® Rich Chocolate Powder. It's still only 185 calories and 17g of sugar!
You can soak the rolled oats in the milk for 5-10 minutes to make them softer and not as dry. The oats will also soften if you store the muffins in a sealed container for at least 12 hours before you eat them.
