I have slowly been transitioning my home to clean and organic eating. So when I made these Baked Oatmeal Muffins I was a bit leary if the boys would like them. They passed the test, they liked them.
The great thing about these baked oatmeal muffins is that they can be easily taken with you on the go and you can top them with your favorite topping. Maybe that is why the boys liked them, I used chocolate chips on half of the muffins. They did like the blueberry ones, they just ate the chocolate chips first.

I made sure to substitute the original recipe with coconut oil in place of the canola oil. I recently read “The Food Babe Way” and Vani explains about oils and what oils to drop from your diet and cooking. Here is a link to FoodBabe.com, if you want to read about why I stopped using canola oil and others that were in my kitchen.

You will start to hear a few snippets here and there about how I have started to slowly move my family over to organic eating. If you want to do this for your family, I HIGHLY suggest you order her book,

I have not been endorsed to talk about her book, I just think everyone needs to read it and be educated about the crap we eat and have no idea we are eating it. If you have read the book or read it, please let me know.
