Directions
-
Preheat oven to 400&# 194;°F (200ðC). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, sugar, milk, and oil until well combined.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
-
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon just until the flour is moistened; do not overmix.
-
Fold in the chopped apples and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
-
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
-
Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm.

Note
Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze them for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
Try adding 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch. You can also substitute half the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a heartier texture.
To prevent the apples from sinking to the bottom, toss them lightly in 1 tablespoon of flour before folding them into the batter. Ensure your apples are peeled and diced into small, uniform pieces for even baking.
