The smell alone of these scrumptious apple oatmeal muffins with their cinnamon, allspice and cloves baking is enough to get the family rushing to the breakfast table. Yet, once they taste their moist and wholesome oat goodness mingling with the spiced apples and chewy nuts in these tender, protein-packed muffins, they will never be late for breakfast again.
How These Muffins with Fresh Apples Can Boost Your Health and Happiness
- This is a healthy muffin recipe with canola oil that is void of butter or shortening that can increase cholesterol levels. In addition, they are no-sodium muffins.

- These muffins are delicious enough with the need for streusel or crumb topping or a glaze.
- Finally, the oatmeal and nuts in these fruit muffins make them more filling than plain flour muffins.
