Do you know the muffin man?

Okay....so I know I didn't fully make these from scratch (caught me), but I'm always excited when I find a product that gives me that "can't-tell-it's-not-homemade" feel, so I thought I'd share. Not only is this muffin mix healthy, easy to make, and tastes amazing, but it leaves a cinnamony smell in the kitchen that lasts for hours!

Product: President's Choice Organics Apple Cinnamon Muffin Mix
Egg free, milk free, and only 8 ingredients (!!)

Instructions are super easy:

1. Mix entire package of muffin mix in a bowl with 1 cup of water, 1 egg, and 2 tbsp of vegetable oil.

 2. I added half of a yellow delicious apple cut up really thin to the batter, to give the muffins some extra flavour.

3. Scoop the batter into a greased muffin tray or muffin cups. The recipe says it should make 12 muffins, but ours filled about 14.

 4. Put into a pre-heated oven (350 degrees) for 15-20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.

5. Cool for 5 minutes in the tray, and then transfer to a cooling rack for about 10 minutes.

And that's it! Eat for breakfast or a snack. The apple chunks were a great addition, they kept the muffins moist and flavourful. I looove muffins but unfortunately most of the recipes I've found either call for a few sticks of butter or a ton of oil to keep them moist, and the healthy recipes (Read: bran muffins) are so dry it tastes like I'm eating cardboard. These muffins are the perfect balance.

Happy Saturday! :)
