I was searching for a fall muffin recipe that wasn't too sweet and had some goodness to it. This recipe filled those requirements exactly. My family, including the teenagers, loved them. I used fresh chopped cranberries which gave these muffins little chunks of tang. These muffins could be served as a dessert or with a meal. I am serving these for a home school gathering tomorrow and I am sure they will be a hit. I think that your choice of apple type would make a difference in the recipe outcome. I used mild yellow and red delicious apples and used a hand grater for both apples and carrots, using the fine grate. Make sure not to overmix when adding the dry ingredients.I didn't use a mixer at all but did everything by hand. The hardest part was chopping the fresh cranberries.
Thanks Esther for sharing this wonderful recipe. I am sure it will become an Autumn staple in our home!!
