Hi tobey,

In your recipe for the Cranberry Oatmeal Muffins, where you say 1c oatmeal do you mean rolled oats or actual prepared oatmeal?? I would appreciate clarification as soon as you have a chance. These muffins sound so yummy!

Hi There

I mean just rolled oats - not prepared oatmeal.

Sorry for the confusion!

Hope you enjoy the muffins. They are one of my favourites. It was my mom who created the recipe. She is a great LF/FF baker.
