Apple Muffins

We love muffins for breakfast! It is our breakfast every Sunday morning. I try to make several batches and freeze them so all I have to do is set some out on Saturday night.

I try to make different kinds of muffins. Our favorites are banana, zuchinni chocolate chip, and apple. Wanted to share the apple recipe with you. It is delicious!! Enjoy!

Apple Muffins/Bread

1½ cup of whole wheat flour (I use freshly ground)

1/2 cup sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 

½ teaspoon salt

1 egg, lightly beaten

½ cup coconut oil (or applesauce or half of each) 

¼ cup milk

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 medium apples chopped in bite sized pieces

½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans

Sugar in the Raw for topping

Directions:

In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. In another bowl combine the egg, oil, milk, lemon juice, and vanilla; mix well. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in apples. Fill greased loaf pan or muffin tin and sprinkle on the sugar in the raw and walnuts. Bake at 350F for 60 minutes for loaf and 20-25 minutes for muffins or until done.
