Perfect Leftover Oatmeal Muffins - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 eggs
    1/3 cup butter, melted
    1/2 cup applesauce or 1/2 cup about the amount in a snack size applesauce
    1 cup oatmeal, cooked and on the thick side
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    3/4 cup brown sugar
    1 cup walnuts, chopped
    1/2 cup dried cranberries, raisins, chocolate chips, etc...up to a cup and a half if you REALLY like them
    1 cup flour (I use whole wheat, but white is fine)
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1 teaspoon baking soda
Preparation
    Mix ingredients, up to and including cranberries, together in a large bowl. Stir these ingredients together very well.
    Mix the last three ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder) in a measuring cup, then incorporate them into the wet ingredients swifty and without stirring past the point that all is combined (as you would do for any muffins).
    Grease muffin tins, cups, or bundt pan (I use Pam baking spray or a very nonstick muffin tin). Fill about 2/3 full, maybe slightly more.
    Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
