Directions

Sift flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in oats. Add liquid ingredients and stir only until dry ingredients are moistened. Fill greased muffin cups ⅔ full. Bake at 400 F for 18 to 20 minutes. Let stand in pan a few minutes before removing. Drizzle a sugar or maple glaze over tops of muffins while hot and serve.
