These Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Muffins make a delicious breakfast or snack. Made with old fashioned oats, cinnamon and apples for the perfect flavor combination.
Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Muffins
Muffins are a simple easy breakfast and when I know we will have a busy week, I like making a batch of muffins Sunday night to have on hand for the coming week.
These Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Muffins are a favorite of ours and the perfect Fall morning breakfast with a cup of coffee or tall glass of milk. They are also a great after school snack.
I like to incorporate healthier choices whenever I can when I am cooking. Apples are called a ‘nutritional powerhouse’ and contain important antioxidants, flavanoids, and dietary fiber. Oats are a good source of carbs and fiber plus they contain many vitamins and minerals. Cinnamon is one of the most healthiest spices and is loaded with powerful antioxidants.

Can the muffins be cooked at 350 degrees?

Hi Stephanie, I have not tried cooking them at 350 degrees. You will need to adjust cooking time and keep an eye on them. Cook them until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

These came out GREAT! I wasn’t careful when reading the recipe and ended up putting the cinnamon and both apples into the batter rather than use them as topping. Doesn’t matter, they still turned out delicious.

Amazing!! - I did substitute the brown sugar for 1/4 of maple syrup . Turned out to be amazing and I was able to cut down on the sugar intake.
Thank you for this amazing recipe!
