Easy as Pie

Here are the recipes we turn to when we want that sweet something

Easy as Pie
Whole Wheat Muffins

We love these whole wheat muffins by Esther O. Quick, healthy, and delicious! I once subbed almond flavoring for the vanilla because I realized when I was in the middle of the recipe that I was out of vanilla. I used slivered almonds and dried cranberries for the topping, and it was amazing! Now I often do it that way. Enjoy!

  • 1 cup whole wheat (or spelt) flour
  • 1 cup quick-cooking oats
  • ½ cup applesauce
  • ½ cup honey
  • ½ cup oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla
Suggested Toppings
  • chocolate chips
  • blueberries, cranberries, and slivered almonds

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

Place all ingredients in a medium-sized bowl. Mix by hand or in mixer until combined. Pour into lined muffin cups. Top with your favorite toppings.

Bake for 18–20 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
