Apple + Oat Muffins

I really like making muffins, because you can mix in whatever ingrediens you feel like that day and then they are super fast to whip up.
Yesterday I wanted to make a healtier version muffin, after eating too much over Easter, I figured it was the only way to go.
When making muffins you want to make sure you have two bowls ready, one for the wet ingrediens and one for the dry.


In the dry bowl I mixed together:

1/2 cup regular flour
1/4 cup old fashioned oats
3 tbs brown sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp salt

In the wet bowl I beated together with a whisk:
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
4 tbs unsweetened applesauce
1 tbs canola oil

Then I simply added the dry ingrediens to the wet and stirred it all well together.

As muffins rise quite a bit, you only want to fill up the paper cups 1/3 of the way. Since I used old fashioned oats, these muffins has a nuttier and more grainy feel to it, making them, in my mind perfect both for breakfast and a long side your afternoon tea. With the added applesauce they keep nice and moist for a couple of days, if you store them in a airtight plastic container/bag.
