    Apple Granola Muffins are stacked three high at perilous angles. All sitting on a small white dish and a beige wooden beaded mat.

    Apple Granola Muffins are healthy and delicious. I never met an apple, muffin or granola that I didn't like so this seemed like a home run from the get-go.

    A helpful fun video is right here ↑ if you're on a desktop computer and a couple of paragraphs below if you're on mobile.

    Apple is finely diced so the chunks are understated and applesauce brings more apple flavor through. It seems like I try to work apples into a lot of recipes.

    They're just so friggin' good!

    Apple Granola Muffins have a photo taken from above. Five muffins on a white rectangle plate with one muffin broken open.
    Nuts are the usual crunch that gets added to muffins but, hey, let's add a bigger variety of texture and use granola.

    You can choose your favorite whether it includes other dried fruits or not. I used cereal granola, not trail mix granola. Both would work great.

    In fact, have you ever made your own granola? I just happen to have a delicious recipe on the blog and it's called Date Bar Granola. Here's a pic!

    Date Bar Granola Cereal is in a green pottery bowl and is almost covered in dairy free milk. Sitting in front of a milk pitcher and huge glass container of homemade granola.
    Now I need to make these muffins again soon. Some of this granola is in my cereal jar, right now, and it would be so good in this recipe.

    If you want bigger muffins this batter works for those also. Just fill up the tins more. You won't get as many muffins but they will be a bigger serving. Whatever muffin tins you have work with this recipe.

    Since super moist muffins are always welcome bake up a batch of Apple Granola Muffins and you will be glad you did.

    Apple Granola Muffins stacked three and one broken open so that chunks of apples are seen inside.

    TO FREEZE:

    After they have cooled you may freeze them in any of the methods shown in my article How to prepare Food for the Freezer

    TO PREPARE AFTER FREEZING:

    They defrost quickly so it really doesn't take any planning. The microwave will also zap them in 20 seconds.
