High Fiber Easy Oat Muffins

A quick and easy recipe for muffins without all of the fat! These muffins are hearty, quick and easy to make, and full of fiber. You can refrigerate them for a week or freeze for three months. I started with a regular boxed muffin mix and added fruit and nuts to increase the fiber and make them heartier.
