When I was in college, I found this recipe in the newspaper. I wish I still had the recipe that I cut out so I could thank the person who has given my family our all-time favorite muffin recipe. Over the years it has gotten ripped up, but I did manage to rewrite it on an index card. I remember making them for Jeff when we were first started dating. This could have been one of the reasons he continued asking me out. 😉

It does not matter what time of the year it is, Fall, Winter, Spring or Summer, these muffins will always make a big impression.

Raw-Apple Muffins

First Bowl:

4 cups finely diced apples (peeled or unpeeled)

1 cup sugar

Mix these two ingredients together and set aside.

Second Bowl:

2 eggs

½ cup vegetable oil

2 tsp vanilla

In a separate bowl, blend well.

Third Bowl:

2 cups flour

2 tsp baking soda

2 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp salt

In a third bowl, mix these four ingredients.

Stir the egg mixture into the apples and sugar mix. Sprinkle the flour mixture over the apple mixture blend.

Optional:

1 cup raisins

1 cup walnuts, broken into little pieces.

Add the raisins and walnuts. Then spoon into muffin tins.

Bake at 325-degree oven for 25 minutes.

I hope you and your family enjoy these scrumptious muffins!
