Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup grated apple (about 1 large apple)
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts or seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the applesauce, milk, oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the grated apple and nuts or seeds if using.
  5. Fill Muffin Tin: Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  6. Bake: Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy them warm or store them in an airtight container.
