Oatmeal Cinnamon Muffins

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup quick cooking rolled oats
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup cooking oil
1/2 cup mixed dried fruit or raisins
12 paper cup liners for muffin pan

Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees

In a large bowl mix the flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Stir until mixed then set aside.

In another mixing bowl, add egg and beat with a fork until well mixed. Add milk and cooking oil, beat well. Stir in fruit or raisins, mix well.

Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until the dry ingredients are moist. (The batter will be lumpy) Using a spoon, spoon batter into each muffin cup about 2/3 full.

Put the muffin pan in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the muffins are golden brown. Turn off the oven and using pot holders, remove the pan from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool for about 5 minutes. Serve warm with margarine or butter.

TIPS for KIDS

Cooking is fun.

Find a recipe and carefully read it. Assemble the ingredients and equipment that will be needed. Be sure you have an ADULT present to help you at all times.

SAFETY TIPS:

Always use hot pads or potholders when cooking or baking and make sure an ADULT is there to help you.

Always wash your hands before you start to cook! Use soap and water, clean all parts of your hands really good.

Don't forget: Help clean up after you have finished baking or cooking. Mom & Dad will like that and so will your grandparents.

Best of all, Have Fun and Enjoy!
NOTE:   All ADULTS should help a child read the recipe first to make sure all the ingredients are available and the type of supervision that will be needed for each recipe.
