For a richer flavor, toast the rolled oats lightly before adding them to the recipe. If you don't have spelt flour, whole wheat flour can be used as a substitute. These muffins freeze well. Wrap individually and store in the freezer for up to 2 months. Add a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar on top of the muffins before baking for a sweet, crunchy topping.
