How to Make Apple Oat Muffins

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with cooking spray.
2. Wash and core 2 medium apples (about 1 1/2 cups diced). Place diced apples on paper towels and gently press to remove excess moisture. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
4. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk (any kind), 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 cup plain yogurt, and 1 large egg.
6. Pour the wet ingredients into the well of the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
7. Fold in the prepared apples and 1 cup rolled oats.
8. Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full.
9. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
