Time 53m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ cups rolled oats
1 cup white sugar, divided
6 lemons, juiced
¾ cup wheat germ
½ cup water
2 teaspoons lemon zest
1 ¾ cups pitted and sliced fresh cherries
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, sifted
1 ½ tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground ginger
¾ cup plain Greek yogurt
3 extra large eggs, beaten
½ cup soybean oil
6 tablespoons butter, softened

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 2 muffin tins with paper liners.
  • Mix oats, 1/3 cup sugar, lemon juice, wheat germ, water, and lemon zest together in a small bowl.
  • Mix cherries with 2 tablespoons sugar in a small bowl.
  • Combine remaining 2/3 cup sugar, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and ginger in a large bowl. Stir in oat mixture. Mix in yogurt, eggs, oil, and butter until batter is thick and smooth.
  • Fold cherries into the batter. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tops start to brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Cool in the tins for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
