What would you do if you had a bag of apples?

If you’re anything at all like me, you would google “apple recipes” all day until you found something that’s easy, yummy, and involves apples.

That’s what I did.

And this is what I found.

I was so pleased to read the recipe and find I had everything I needed at home!

The recipe called for oil, so I used Canola oil (for the first time) and was very pleased with the results!

Canola oil is used by bakers everywhere, especially for its health benefits.

It has the lowest content of saturated or bad fat (among all oils!), and it’s also loaded with vitamin E antioxidants.

I was a little sad that poor butter was left out of this recipe so unceremoniously.

But can I please say that the oil makes these muffins gloriously moist and soft.

Since this was my first time with muffins (I’m a cupcake person), I was rather intrigued by the thick, heavy muffin batter.

But despite the heaviness of the batter, these muffins are incredibly light and fluffy.

(I made some with and without the sprinkling of brown sugar on top.)

They are soft and dense at the same time, and have that warm, heady aroma only a combination of apples, cinnamon and sugar can create.

And that’s a winning combination if I’ve ever heard one.

Have a happy weekend!
