Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by greasing it well or lining each cup with a paper liner. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg until well combined. (Prep time: 3 minutes)

03

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, buttermilk, oil, egg, and vanilla extract. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

04

Step

Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing only until just combined and the flour disappears. Be careful not to overmix. (Prep time: 3 minutes)

05

Step

In a small bowl, combine the grated apple, grated carrots, and toasted walnuts. Gently fold this mixture into the muffin batter. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

06

Step

Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

07

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, approximately 17 to 19 minutes. (Bake time: 17-19 minutes)

08

Step

Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (Cooling time: 20 minutes)

For best results, don't overmix the batter. A few streaks of flour are okay.
To toast the walnuts, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant.
These muffins are delicious served warm with a pat of butter or a dollop of cream cheese.
Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
