Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cups Rolled oats
- 1 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.5 cups Honey
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Greek yogurt
- 1 medium Apple (peeled, cored, and diced)
- 0.5 cups Chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to combine.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, unsweetened applesauce, honey, vanilla extract, and Greek yogurt until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the diced apple and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
