I had a bag of apples left on the counter that were starting to get soft, so I decided to make a week’s worth of apple bread and muffins for breakfasts and snacks this week.
They were so good! I used more spices than were called for, adding nutmeg, cardamom, a little ginger and lots of cinnamon and I loved the extra flavour. The vegan recipe called for olive oil instead of butter and that also added a little more depth of flavour. I grated the apples coarsely so it turned out very moist with lots of apple flavour in every bite.

And I couldn’t resist this photo! Marlo happened to wander in while I was shooting and I loved his hopeful little eyes peaking over the plate.
