Speaking of apples, they’re an autumn fruit so I’ve been using as many apple recipes as possible until Thanksgiving comes. The previous post was a delectable apple pie and be prepared because I have many more apple recipes coming your way.
Which brings me to these muffins. Soft, moist, apple chunks in every bite, a kick of cinnamon here and there, what more could you want with a muffin? Besides a cup of coffee and a cat on your lap, you don’t need anything else with these scrumptious little guys.
To tell you the truth, I had a panic attack about these muffins. You see, I write and edit my posts before adding pictures. The snaps I took of the muffins were still on the camera so I was doing my normal blogging routine, but when I put the memory card into my computer there were no photos of the muffins.
……………………………………..(insert crying here)………………………………………………….
My mom deleted the photos yesterday when I was sick, and here I am today trying to blog about them…basically I had a meltdown because after I took the photos of the muffins I ate them. Well my family helped but those little bread buddies were gone in a couple of days, and I have zero DSLR photos to show for it.
Except for a snap I took on my iphone. Thank goodness for technology, right?
So after explaining the trauma these baked goods brought this morning I’ll leave you to read the recipe. I hope you enjoy them.
- 4½ c. freshly milled whole wheat flour
- 2 tsp. baking soda
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 2 tsp. salt
- 2 Tbsp. ground flax seed + 6 Tbsp. warm water
- 3 tsp. cinnamon
- ½ tsp. nutmeg
- 2 c. almond milk
- 1 cup olive oil
- 1 cup honey
- 1 c. chopped pecans
- 2½ c. large apples (green or red, whichever you prefer)
- Peel and cube your apples and set aside.
- Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl.
- Pour apples and pecans into your dry ingredients and coat well.
- This prevents your nuts and fruit from sinking to the bottom of the batter. Add wet ingredients to dry and stir until combined.
- Pour into greased muffin cups.
- Bake at 350F for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
I hope you have a wonderful day and I hope the weather is beautiful where you are. 🙂
Much Love,
Katherine Marie
