APPLE OATMEAL MUFFINS

Filed under Breads
Ingredients
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
2 large eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil

3/4 cup applesauce
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 medium apple, finely chopped
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners.  In a large bowl, mix together the sugars, eggs, oil, vanilla and applesauce. In a separate bowl, mix together the flours, baking powder, soda, salt and spices.  Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in the bowl.  Stir in the oats, apples, and nuts.  Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Let's Dish
This is one of the tastiest muffin recipes I've tried in quite awhile.  The combination of apples, oats and spices is just perfect, although I find an extra dash of cinnamon never hurts!  If you prefer, you can bake this up in a 9x5-inch loaf pan.  These muffins are a perfect fall treat.  They were certainly a big hit at my house!

  3. These look and sound absolutely wonderful. I just bought a bunch of apples from a local produce stand and I can't wait to use them on these muffins.

  5. I made 4th batch of these yesterday, truly delicious! So moist, so yummy and full of fruit. I skipped the pecans, added cranberries to last two batches and they just vanish into thin air. I think I better make the 5th batch today!
    This recipe is truly a keeper, I don't even need to look at it anymore while making them!
