Easy Apple Muffins

An easy apple muffin recipe that is great for breakfast or for a snack in the middle of the day! 

With it being almost the middle of September, I have started to get a taste for fall flavors. Like pumpkin and apples. Yum! Can’t wait to see fresh whole pumpkins in the store. Usually then, they are a great price to stock-up and make homemade puree to use all-season long.

Have you ever made fresh homemade pumpkin puree before? It’s delicious.

Let’s get back to these tasty easy apple muffins, shall we?

With these muffins, you do not need to bring out your handheld or stand-mixer. You can keep that tucked in the back of the cabinets or shelf. These aren’t called easy for a reason! You will only need a large mixing bowl, a plastic spatula, measuring cups (of course), and a muffin tin. You can use liners if you would like to.

If you decide not to, you really want to make sure you spray non-stick cooking spray all-around the muffin tin. Helps to remove the muffins whole, instead of by pieces.

Another important tip, that I think is pretty important. I wanted until the last minute to cup the apples into chunks because I didn’t want them to brown.

Notes

I like to precook my rice or double a previous recipe and then hold back the rice for this recipe to save time. Also, using the leftover chicken for this saves time so you don't have to cook the chicken before making this.
