Apple Oatmeal Muffins

Do you ever wake up thinking that something in particular sounds so good that you just  may have to make it?  Well, it happens to me ALL the time!

There was a time before this website that I was happy to open a box and pop a store bought item in the toaster or microwave and quickly make breakfast.  Now…don’t get me wrong on occasion that still happens, but since learning how easy it is to make just about anything I want from scratch that’s my method of choice!

This particular morning I had some apples I needed to use up before they went bad, so I decided to add those to these delicious oatmeal muffins.

A friend of mine, Tara from Organized SAHM, told me this great way to ‘bake’ apples quickly.  Simply put them in a plastic dish (peeled and cored) along with cinnamon and just about a tbsp of water in the microwave for 5 minutes with a plate over them.  Then, let them cool for 2 minutes…guess what?  It worked!  I was all over it after that!

Now, it’s time for some apple goodness for breakfast…or all day!

Oh and to note, I did use gluten free all purpose flour to make these; however, they will work with either gluten free or gluten filled.  Eat up!

Enjoy!
