Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup finely diced apples (about 1 medium apple)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, combine the applesauce, granulated sugar, brown sugar, Greek yogurt, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the diced apples.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a sweeter muffin, you can add a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar on top before baking.
  • Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
  • These muffins freeze well. Wrap them individually in plastic wrap and then place them in a freezer bag for up to 3 months.
