Chef's Note

For the best texture and flavor, try toasting the oats and walnuts in a dry skillet for 5 minutes before adding them to the mixture. This extra step develops a deeper, nuttier flavor that pairs beautifully with the spiced apples.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups rolled oats

  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed

  • 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 3 tablespoons honey

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

  • 1/2 cup almond milk

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 large egg

  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil

  • 1 medium Honeycrisp apple

  • 1/3 cup walnuts

  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries

Instructions
  • 1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 6-cup muffin tin with coconut oil.

  • 2

    In a large mixing bowl, combine 1.5 cups rolled oats, 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed, 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Mix well.

  • 3

    In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons honey, 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1/2 cup almond milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 large egg, and 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil until smooth.

  • 4

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

  • 5

    Fold in the diced apple, 1/3 cup chopped walnuts, and 1/4 cup dried cranberries, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.

  • 6

    Divide the mixture evenly among 6 muffin cups (you'll be using only half the tin for 3 servings).

  • 7

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  • 8

    Remove from the oven and let cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

  • 9

    Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds before serving if desired.
