We have a sentimental attachment for these muffins. They were the first we ever made after we went into the inn business. We still make them – and they ‘re still a success.

Mix the melted butter or margarine with the 1/4 cup of oats. Sprinkle evenly over the muffins. Bake at 400 degrees F for 20-25 minutes.
(When ready for the oven, these muffins may be covered with waxed paper and stored in the refrigerator overnight, to be baked the following morning.)
