Any time is the perfect time for baking!

It’s true, but there’s just something about fall that makes me want to bake all the things…cakes, muffins, cookies…you name it, I want to bake it. I think it has a lot to do with all of the fresh fruit and veggies that are abundant this time of year…the markets are full so I stock up! So in efforts not to waste food I bake and cook and I’m not mad about it.  This week I had a bowl full of market McIntosh apples that just called to me so I made these Maple Apple muffins.

Let’s Bake!

If you’re looking for a delicious muffin recipe that your family will love, these Maple Apple Oatmeal Muffins are it. Bonus points because they’re pretty healthy too. And this recipe is easily doubled, so make a big batch and freeze half for later.  Your future self will thank you!

If you could taste these Maple Apple Muffins, you would know. You would know how good they are…with bites of sweet apple among oats and flavours of cinnamon and maple. They’re so flavourful and moist. Yum. Enjoy!

Muffins are a perfect snack or to-go breakfast.

I make, and we eat, a lot of muffins. They’re easy, delicious and great for snacks or a quick breakfast, and the flavour possibilities are endless!  Over the years I’ve made many many muffin recipes so if you’re looking for even more recipe ideas, make sure to have a look around at my Muffin Recipes here.

Recipe Tips:

• Apples: My favourite apples for this recipe are McIntosh apples, but feel free to use your favourite.
• Oats: Use quick oats for this recipe.
• Sugar Topping: I like to sprinkle on some extra sugar on the tops of the batter before I put the muffins in the oven. It makes a nice sweet sugary crust.
• Freezing: These muffins freeze really well. Just store them in an air-tight container or ziplock bag.
