Apple Oatmeal Muffins
The moistness of these muffins comes from the shredded apple. These make a great breakfast muffin or a nutritious snack.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups apple, peeled and shredded
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup quick oats
  • 2/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup fat-free milk
  • 2 tbsp canola oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup plain fat-free yogurt
  • 2 egg whites

Preparation:

Spoon flour into measuring cups and level with a knife. Place flour in a large mixing bowl and add oats, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Stir with a whisk.

Combine milk, oil, vanilla, yogurt and egg whites, stirring until well blended. Add wet ingredients to flour bowl and stir until just moist. Blot shredded apple on kitchen paper to get rid of excess moisture, then add apple to mixture and stir.

Spoon batter into a lined 12-cup muffin tin. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.

Quite tasty and moist, Member hodges09

These were pretty quick and easy. I did substitute gluten free flour and oats for the flour and oats in this recipe. I also used plain greek yogurt and substituted 3TBL flaxseed for a TBL of the vegetable oil and added 1/8 cup of milk for the additional flaxseed. Very yummy! I used 3 red delicious apples and ended up with 12 regular muffins and 8 mini muffins. :) Will definitely make again. Calories come out to about 115 per muffin.
