Ingredients
 

  • 1 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
  • 3/4 cup quick oats
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 6 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup finely chopped apple, about one small apple with skin on

Instructions
 

  • Position oven rack to the middle and pre-heat to 350 F.
  • Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper or silicone liners. Set aside.
  • To a large bowl, add flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk and set aside.
  • To a separate large bowl, add melted butter and brown sugar. Whisk until smooth and well combined. Add eggs, vanilla extract, and milk, and whisk until combined.
  • Add dry ingredients and chopped apples to wet ingredients. With a large wooden spoon or spatula, mix until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.
  • Scoop batter into muffin liners, distributing evenly.
  • Transfer to the oven and bake for 18-25 minutes, or until tops are set and a toothpick placed in the center comes out mostly clean. Be careful not to over-bake these or they could dry out.
  • Let muffins cool in the pan for 15-minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Cool to room temperature before eating.
