Preparation

Step 1

Directions
Preheat oven to 375ºF. Grease muffin cups or line with muffin liners.
In a small saucepan, saute the apples, brown sugar and cinnamon for about 5 minutes over medium heat. The apples should begin to soften and caramelize slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.
Stir together flours, oats, brown sugar, white sugar, salt and baking powder in a mixing bowl. Add in the applesauce, vegetable oil, and cider or milk. Stir until just moistened. Fold in chopped apple. Fill muffin cups ¾ full.
Bake for about 18 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
