What on Earth does one do with canned pumpkin left over from the world's greatest pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, no flour, and an insatiable desire to make muffins? An excellent question. In short, one recognizes one's useless supply of oatmeal and decides to get cray cray. Cause what the hell else are you doing?
Ingredients:
3/4 cup pumpkin (...ish. Whatever is leftover from cookies)
1 cup sugar (...ish. Whatever is leftover from boredom-induced Maine baking frenzy)
1 egg
1/4 cup oil
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup instant oatmeal
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt (does anyone seriously measure salt?)
nutmeg (just shake it. Settle down, it'll all work out fine. people baked before they invented the teaspoon. i think.)
cinnamon (see above)
dregs of flour left at bottom of bag. (fine I guess they aren't technically flourless)
Dump pumpkin, white sugar, egg, and oil in small bowl. Mix. Put oatmeal, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, spices, and a little flour in big bowl. Also mix. Add wet stuff to dry stuff. Mix again. Add a little milk if it doesn't look like muffin batter. If it looks too wet, go with more oatmeal. Always more oatmeal. Again, I really can't recommend the spices too highly. They're lovely.
Fill muffins tins with batter (mine made 6 muffins). Bake 6 minutes on 350 degrees. Take out, top half of them with oatmeal (half of your friends like crunchy stuff on their muffin and half don't. Its science.) Put back in for 8ish minutes, depending your oven's level of ghetto and how fast it turns stuff into edible food.
