    Apple Blueberry Muffins

    These Apple Blueberry muffins have great flavour and texture, are easy to make, and make a great on-the-go breakfast!

    Wow, I knew it had been a while since I blogged a new recipe, but looking at it now... if I'd left this til tomorrow, it would have been a full month. Oops!

    Things have been busy here. We're mostly settled in, both as far as the house and our new lives go. I'm working my butt off at my spandex costuming business, while also working on editing and formatting Maize Craze.

    For his part, my husband is about halfway through finals - he had to go back to university, to become qualified to do the job he was doing for the 20 years before moving to Canada. Yikes!

    Anyway. I've been making muffins more often, lately, as they make great grab and go breakfasts for his long commute to the university.

    Sometimes they're my tried and true recipes (We've done my Pina Colada Muffins and my Breakfast Corn Muffins recently), and sometimes I just ask what he's in the mood for, and build a recipe around that.

    This week, he was in the mood for apple cinnamon muffins.. but blueberries were on sale and looked good.

    We kept the cinnamon in, as not only does cinnamon work well with apple, it also works well with blueberries - this is something he learned as I was working on More Than Poutine - they're the main flavours of Blueberry Grunt!

    I'd originally (ie: while mentally planning this recipe at the grocery store) intended to put some maple syrup in, but managed to forget.

    These apple blueberry muffins turned out so well, they ended up in regular rotation!

    Apple Blueberry Muffin Variations

    Over the couple years since I originally posted this recipe, we’ve done this recipe in a few different variations. Here are a few favourites:

    Apple Cranberry Muffins

    Swap the blueberries out for fresh or frozen cranberries. We usually leave the cinnamon out.

    Apple Berry Muffins

    Swap out half of the blueberries with either fresh or frozen cranberries, OR raspberries, strawberry slices, etc. Skip the cinnamon.

    Apple Blueberry Muffins with Orange

    Skip the cinnamon, add the zest of one orange.

    Apple Blueberry Cobbler Muffins

    Make the recipe as it, but add the streusel topping from my Cardamom Pear Streusel Muffins - but swap out the cardamom in the topping for cinnamon.

    Apple Blueberry “Fruit Explosion” Muffins

    Make the batter as-is, though we usually skip the cinnamon for this variation.

    Divide half the batter among the prepared muffin pan.

    Spoon a heaping teaspoon of blueberry pie filling in the center of each muffin cup.

    Dividing remaining batter among muffin tin cavities, completely covering the pie fulling.

      Perfect recipe for delicious muffins. I couldn't be bothered to peel the apple first and decided the skin would make for extra fiber. Couldn't even tell it was in there. A compliment from the Husband is a recipe worthy of an award... thank you 😊
