Apple Oatmeal Muffins with Honey
These apple oatmeal muffins are healthy and delicious. They are sweetened with just 1/4 cup of honey, plus some unsweetened applesauce. It's nice to know you can have a snack or light breakfast that's full of healthy ingredients.
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
- 2 cups apples, finely chopped
- 1 egg, beaten with 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Generously butter a 12 cup muffin tin (or spray them well with a non-stick spray).
- Combine the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a medium-sized bowl and mix well. Set aside.
- In a small bowl blend the egg and milk with the applesauce, honey, and butter. Add the chopped apples and mix them in well. Pour this mixture over the dry ingredients and mix with a fork just until moistened. Fill the prepared muffin tins two thirds full.
- Bake the muffins at 375°F for about 25 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Loosen the muffins from the pan with a small spatula and remove them to a wire rack to cool.
- Makes 12 muffins.
