Ingredients

1     cup   buttermilk
3/4    cup rolled oats (not instant or quick)
1 1/4    cups whole-wheat pastry flour
2    teaspoons baking powder
1/2    teaspoon baking soda
1/2    teaspoon salt
1    teaspoon cinnamon
2    tablespoons Splenda Sugar Blend for Baking
2/3    cup walnuts, chopped
1    egg
1/3    cup canola oil
1    tablespoon molasses
1/4    cup milk (optional)

Method of Preparation :

1. Mix oats and buttermilk. Let stand for 20 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking oil.
3. Place whole wheat pastry flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and Splenda in a mixing bowl. Whisk until well combined. Stir in walnuts.
4. In a separate bowl, mix together egg, canola oil, and molasses. Add this mixture to flour mixture and stir well. The batter will be very thick. If it's too thick, add 1/4 cup milk.
5. Spoon batter into muffin tin. Bake for 15 minutes. Cool on wire rack for 5 minutes before turning muffins out of pan.
