How to use this list
Start by checking your pantry and fridge for the essentials: all-purpose flour, old-fashioned rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and kosher salt. Next, gather the wet ingredients—eggs, plain Greek yogurt, unsweetened applesauce, maple syrup, and vegetable oil. You'll need two apples for grating or chopping and walnuts for crunch. Lay everything out before you start mixing. Follow the ingredient order for best results, and preheat your oven so it's ready when the batter is mixed.
Common mistakes
Don’t swap in quick oats for old-fashioned rolled oats; the texture will be off. Avoid using sweetened applesauce or flavored yogurt, which can make the muffins too sweet or mask the apple-cinnamon flavor. Skipping the walnuts is fine for allergies, but don’t double up on apples to compensate. Overmixing the batter will make your muffins tough, so stir just until combined.
What is on this list
You’ll find all-purpose flour, rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, kosher salt, eggs, plain Greek yogurt, unsweetened applesauce, maple syrup, vegetable oil, apples, and walnuts. Cross off what you already have before you shop or start baking. Double-check for baking powder and cinnamon—these are easy to run low on.
Before you go
Before you start, prep your muffin tin with liners or nonstick spray. Chop the walnuts and apples ahead of time for a smoother workflow. Once baked, let the muffins cool before storing in an airtight container. They’ll keep well for several days at room temperature, making mornings easier all week.
