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.
Also, do you guys like my new blog header? My fabulous friend Neha designed it.
Have a happy weekend! 🙂

Useful ideas, thanks for sharing these in Apple Cinnamon Muffins culinarystorm.
Those muffins look REALLY good! I have a muffin every morning, I’m definitely more of a muffin guy than cupcake guy.
I really liked your old blog header! 😦 But this one is good too 🙂
U have a muffin EVERY morning??
I want your life.
I voted for pineapple but I LOVE berries and mango too. YUM.
I know..sometimes I can’t decide either 🙂
I agree…I use canola oil for Dorie Greenspan’s famous yogurt cake and it always turns out really moist. Your muffins look delicious!
yogurt cake sounds fab!
must try it..
These look SO yummy!!
Mmm, these look delicious! I’m definitely bookmarking it for apple picking season. I recently got some fresh blueberries in Maine and experimented making blueberry muffins from scratch. SO much better than from a box!
yum…blueberries!
wish i got them here in India 😦
As someone who had the honour to taste these muffins (jealous much :P), I can vouch that they were as delicious (or more, if that’s possible) as they look. Perks of sharing a cab with Miss Baker here 🙂
thanks bharti 🙂
Your new header looks nice! It’s always great to have a new look on a blog 🙂
And the muffin, yummy.. I never tried apple muffins, but I love chocolate muffins. So, I guess I’m gonna love your apple muffins if I can try them. BTW, do you take cooking class? Because you seem to be a talented cook.
cooking classes!? I wish! hahaha 🙂
thanks for the sweet compliment though! 🙂
Haha, when I have a certain fruit in my fridge/cupboard/fruit bowl, I can spend hours googling good recipes for it – it’s half the fun of the process!
i know 🙂
I want I want I want!!
make them! so super easy 🙂
