Banana Apple Muffins

These Banana Apple Muffins are a simple, make-ahead breakfast or snack. Sweet ripe bananas and tart apples come together in a soft, tender muffin, finished with a crunchy turbinado sugar topping. Perfect for lunch boxes or a quick breakfast.

Another month has flown by and it's #MuffinMonday again!  I love participating in this group because muffins are always a hit here and it allows me to creatively use some of my pantry ingredients.

 

What You'll Need

• 1 1/2 cups quick oats

• 1 cup all-purpose flour

• 1/3 cup sugar

• 2 tsp baking powder

How to Make It

1. Mix Dry Ingredients
   Combine oats, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, allspice, and cinnamon in a bowl.

2. Combine Wet Ingredients
   Whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, and oil in a separate bowl.

3. Make the Batter
   Stir wet ingredients into dry until just combined. Fold in apple and banana.

4. Fill Muffin Cups
   Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups three-fourths full. Sprinkle tops with turbinado sugar if desired.

5. Bake & Cool
