Instructions
For the muffins
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda.

  • Add applesauce, milk, brown sugar, oil and egg; mix just until dry ingredients are moist.

  • Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling them most of the way.

  • In small bowl, combine topping ingredients. Sprinkle evenly over batter.

  • Bake until the muffins are lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20-22 minutes.  Let the muffins cool 5 minutes in the pan, then remove to a rack.
