Even More Breakfasts on the Go: Pumpkin and Apple Muffins

As I have mentioned several times we are a hurry up and go in the morning family. I also have a LOT of pumpkin puree in my freezer. So its no surprise that I am making another pumpkin muffin recipe...this time I am using some apples I just happen to have hanging around.

I didn't want to like this recipe, I am not a fan of cooking with apples...to much work involved. Cutting, peeling and coring...ugh. I am a dump it all together without doing anything else kind of girl but the smell alone was enough to convenience me to make this muffins again. The after I tried one....so very very good.
