This weekend my in-laws brought over two bags full of apples from their new backyard... They've got three apple trees to contend with - wow.
I decided to begin my apple adventure with some apple muffins. I found a recipe online, and tailored it for us. I'm not sure if I should be playing with recipes yet...I'm still working on this whole "flavor" thing... oh well. I won't learn if I don't try, right?
So here it is:
Whole Wheat and Oat Apple Muffins
Ingredients:
Whole Wheat Flour, 3/4 cup
Flour, white, 3/4 cup
Quick dry oats, 1 cup
Baking Powder, 1 tsp
Baking Soda, 3/4 tsp
Cinnamon, 1/2 tsp
Salt, 1 dash
Vegetable Oil, 2 tbsp
Milk, 3/4 cup
1 Egg
2 Medium Apples, peeled and chopped
Applesauce, unsweetened, 1 cup
Combine all dry ingredients in mixer bowl. Mix with a whisk.
Plop in all wet ingredients. Turn the mixer on the low speed. Batter will be wet and lumpy.
Spoon into greased or paper lined muffin tins. Cook at 400F for 20 mins.
Makes 24 muffins.

I thought these were really tasty. Probably could have added some nutmeg or something to spice them up.
Later in the day I used 6 more apples to make an apple crisp. Ridiculously delicious, and also ridiculously unhealthy. Don't have any pics of the crisp...just the sweet, sweet memories.
