Quick and Easy Strawberry Oat Muffins

Last updated on: July 14, 2019 By Kaylene Filed Under: Muffins, Recipes 6 Comments

Several strawberry oat muffins in red paper cases sitting on black cooling rack.You’re going to love these Strawberry Oat Muffins because they are quick and easy to make, freezer friendly, and SO delicious. They’re great for breakfast, dessert, or as a snack!

I had a visitor to the blog a few weeks ago that asked me about my Plum Oat Muffins recipe. This person wanted to know if they could use frozen plums in that recipe instead of fresh ones. It wasn’t something that I had thought about until then but I was sure that frozen fruit would work!

I really wanted to try it out for myself but because it’s not plum season here yet I was not able to try using frozen plums. However, I did have some frozen strawberries in the freezer with no real use in mind. All the other ingredients are pantry staples so I decided to adapt the recipe to make these Strawberry Oat Muffins.

Several muffins in red paper cases are stacked up on a white plate. An empty muffin tin and oven mitt can be seen in the background.Just as I suspected they turned out wonderful! The muffins are deliciously sweet with the comforting taste of oats as well as yummy soft strawberry pieces. They’re very quick and easy to make too, just perfect for a weekend brunch!

I love that I can make these strawberry oat muffins for breakfast when the summer plum season is over. Actually you could probably substitute the strawberries for whatever frozen fruit you have in your freezer. They would be great with blueberries or raspberries!

One muffin with its paper case peeled away from the sides of the muffin is pictured in the foreground. More muffins can be seen in the background on a cooling rack.I have halved this recipe compared to the plum version. This Strawberry Oat Muffins recipe makes 12 good sized muffins but you could double the ingredients if you need a large batch. Like the plum version they also freeze well, so they’re handy for a quick breakfast. Just take one out of the freezer at night and you’ve got a quick breakfast in the morning!

      Hi Gem, you should be able to use fresh strawberries in these muffins. I make a plum version of these and I use either fresh or frozen!

    Made these tonight with my 4 year old!
    We did them as blender muffins and used coconut oil instead of butter, added cottage cheese and less milk. They turned out wonderfully!
