Ultimate Apple Oat Muffins Recipe: A Delicious and Wholesome Treat

Ingredients

• Muffin Ingredients:
• 1 ½ cups of quick oats
• 1 ¼ cups of all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon of baking powder
• ¾ teaspoon of baking soda
• A dash of ground cinnamon
• ½ cup of firmly packed brown sugar
• 1 egg white
• 1 cup of applesauce
• ½ cup of milk
• Topping Ingredients:
• ¼ cup of quick oats
• ¼ cup of firmly packed brown sugar
• A hint of ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon of melted butter

Step 1

Begin by preheating your oven to a toasty 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by greasing it up or popping in some cute paper liners. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of oatmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and a hint of cinnamon; give it a good whisk and set it aside.

Step 2

Next, in another mixing bowl, whip up a delightful mixture of 1/2 cup of brown sugar, an egg white, applesauce, and milk until it's nice and smooth. Fold in the flour mixture until everything is nicely combined. A few small lumps are totally fine. Pour this batter into your prepped muffin tin. For an extra touch of flavor and crunch, mix together 1/4 cup of oatmeal, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, a tablespoon of cinnamon, and some melted butter in a small bowl; sprinkle this over the muffins.

Step 3

Pop your filled muffin tin into the preheated oven and bake until they turn a lovely golden hue and bounce back when lightly pressed, roughly around 20 minutes. Let them cool for at least 10 minutes before enjoying these scrumptious treats.
