Welcome back friends to our second week of muffins! I wish you could pull up a chair and join us for a few in person. Today's recipe is one of my daughter's favorites. We eat a lot of apples around here, so this one is perfect! I am pretty sure that this recipe came from a Taste of Home Magazine many years ago. Just so you know, we grind our own wheat, so anytime a recipe of mine calls for flour we are using soft white wheat. Yummy!

1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt

Those sound delicious! I don't buy bran flakes. Any suggestions for a substitute or just leave them out?
ReplyDeleteHilary, There are so few I would just try and lave them out. The just seem to bulk them up a lot. I haven borrowed them from the organic raisin bran box a few times! ;)
