Apple Oat Muffins

Just trying to work through those two giant bags of apples. Today was the perfect rainy day to do so. Don't expect these muffins to be overly sweet. The only sugar is from fruit and honey, making it very earthy. I put some in cello bags with candy corn to give to some of my co-workers.

Makes 12 muffins

Ingredients:
1 ripe banana, mashed
-2 tsp. ginger
-1 tsp. cinnamon
-3 cups whole wheat flour
-2 tsp. baking powder
-1 tsp. baking soda
-pinch of salt
-2.5 cups water
-4 tart apples, diced

FOR TOPPING:
-1 cup rolled oats
-2 Tbsp. honey


Directions:

1) Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2) Mash a banana in the bottom of a large bowl. Mix in ginger, cinnamon, flour, baking powder/soda, and salt.  Gradually add water. Mix in diced apple until the batter is thoroughly combined.

3) In a smaller bowl, mix together the oats and honey.

4) Prepare a muffin tin with nonstick spray. Fill up each well really full with the batter and top with oat and honey mixture.

5) Bake for 22-25 minutes.
