These muffins are delicious and reasonably healthy! Filled with wholemeal flour, oats and apples, you could even add in some sultanas if you wanted. I was really pleased with the amount of batter this recipe made, 12 regular muffins plus 12 mini muffins, enough for the kids to have some for afternoon tea and freeze for school lunch boxes.

It’s great to serve the kids with healthy and nutritious snack. I will try this recipe. Thanks for sharing.
My kids loved them next time I’ll add in some sultanas for something different too. Hope your family enjoy them 🙂
Sounds yum, wondering if recipe would work with maple flavoured syrup (I don’t have any actual maple syrup in the pantry at the moment)?
I don’t see why not Mariana, it just make be a little sweeter than with the real syrup. Hope you enjoy.
I just made them with green maple flavoured syrup and they were fantastic!

That’s great to hear that it can be used too Sarah, thank you for sharing, so pleased you enjoyed them!
Thanks for letting me (and everyone else) know Sarah 😉
Any chance you could put up the recipes in grams or lbs and oz????? Please!!
I made these today to add to our lunch boxes this week. I did play around a bit and did not use maple syrup or the sugar but rather added Rice Malt Syrup (reducing sugar intake.) It is a lovely recipe and will add it to my “go to” recipe list.
Thanks Kat
clever idea, thanks for sharing Nicki
