Ingredients
  • 1 large Egg
  • 2/3 cup Sugar
  • 3/4 cup Milk
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable oil
  • 1 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 cup Quick oats
  • 3 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup Chopped apples
  • 1 cup Raisins
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 400&# 194;°F (200ðC). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. 2
    In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, sugar, milk, and oil until well combined.
  3. 3
    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  4. 4
    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.
  5. 5
    Fold in the chopped apples and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

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.
