Best Ever Apple Pumpkin Muffins

Pumpkin Apple Muffins are a perfect fall breakfast or brunch. You won’t believe how moist and delicious they are! I got the recipe from a friend years ago, and they have been a family favorite ever since!

We had lots of snow last week. Lots. Nothing puts me more in a baking mood than a blizzard. I love how it warms up the house and makes it smell so wonderful. However, we were pretty much all sugared out because of Christmas, so I didn’t feel like making or eating treats. I made lots of bread and even tried a few recipes. I will be posting them later (well, my favorites anyway.) But first, a tried and true favorite.

A few of my boys would eat cereal for breakfast every day if I would let them. Even when it is cold and snowy outside. I, on the other hand, am not a big fan of cereal. I make up batches of muffins and store them in the freezer so I always have some on hand. Then I can just pop them in the microwave and have wonderful warm muffins even when I don’t have time to cook.

These muffins are one of my favorites. In addition to the healthy pumpkin, they are loaded with fruit and nuts. Sometimes I substitute wheat flour for some of the white flour to make them even more healthy. They are moist and wonderful!
