Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In another bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, brown sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the diced apple pieces to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. These muffins also freeze well for longer storage.
