My kids hate to eat breakfast so I'm always trying to find new ways for them to take something with them and these Whole Wheat Apple Walnut Muffin Tops were perfect.

How do you make apple muffin tops?

For this recipe, you'll need whole wheat flour, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, light brown sugar, apples, milk, applesauce, egg, apple cider and walnuts. 

Start by combining the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and sugar in a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the apples, milk, applesauce, egg and cider; mix well.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well; then add the walnuts. Pour the batter into muffin top pans and bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

These Whole Wheat Apple Walnut Muffin Tops were deliciously filling and healthier than other store bought muffins.

You could also make these muffins in a loaf pan, regular muffin tin or even a bundt pan to serve as a dessert for a crowd. ~Enjoy!

      Thank you! I would start checking them around 10-12 minutes. They will be done when the tops spring back when lightly touched or if a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
