Easy Apple Spice Muffins with 5 ingredients

Recipes

If I gave you a recipe for a baked item that’s easy, only has 5 ingredients, and tastes like a mouthful of AUTUMN out of a muffin tin, would you try it? They remind me of my favorite EZ Pumpkin Muffins. Seriously, your kindergartner could make these … or your friend’s kindergartner (because I don’t have one in K now either!).

Easy Apple Spice Muffins

Easy Apple Spice Muffins

To make these muffins, you only need:

  1. 1 box of spice cake mix (I used Duncan Hines)
  2. 1 cup of applesauce (I used the Peace Applesauce from Aldi)
  3. 1 apple, peeled and diced
  4. 1/2 cup water
  5. A sprinkle of your choice: oatmeal, nuts, bacon crumbles, or raw sugar (That’s what I used)

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and coat a muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray. Combine the applesauce, apples, and water with the cake mix. Sprinkle your choice of topping on top. Stir just until it’s all blended. Evenly distribute the batter to the 12 muffins. They’re just right if you divide them into a dozen. Bake for 20 minutes.

That’s it!! How easy is that? Cool the Apple Spice Muffins in the pan for just a few minutes and then use a knife to gently lift them out of the pan to cool. You can be swallowing the taste of Autumn, warm from your oven, in less than 30 minutes!

When you take your first bite, you’ll hear a voice saying something like, “Pour a glass of milk” or “Fill up a coffee cup!” You should listen. 🙂 The muffins go perfectly with butter, apple butter, or honey as a spread. They would be right at home beside a bowl of stew or potato soup. After all, it’s September, and that always makes me turn to soup recipes.

Finally, on this Feed Me Friday, this week we’ve been talking about what it’s like to be in a valley. God often uses the words and acts of kindness of those around us to help us endure the valley and, eventually, find our way out. A couple of these muffins on a paper plate just might be worth a million dollars to the heart of that grouchy neighbor, tired single mom, weary co-worker, overwhelmed teacher, or fragile looking leader. Closer to home, one of these babies just might speak LOVE to someone in your home.

Happy weekend, friends!
