Combine in a large bowl:
1 1/2 c. flour (I replace 1/2 c white flour with 1/2 c. whole wheat flour)
1 c. rolled oats
1 c. sugar
1 tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
Mix in a separate small bowl:
2 eggs beaten
1 c. milk
1/3 c melted butter(to lower the fat content use oil)
1 tsp maple extract
Mix wet into dry until just moistened. Add 1 1/2 c. coarsely chopped walnuts and gently mix in. Spoon into buttered muffin cups.
Bake at 400F for approx 20 minutes, or until done.
Serve warm with Maple Butter! (Beat together 1/2 c. softened butter and 1/3 c. maple syrup)
