Apple Banana Muffins


3 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
2 cups sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 tbsp vanilla
4 overripe bananas, mashed
3 apples, peeled and diced small
Optional: 2 tbsp apple butter

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. In another bowl, mix together the sugar, oil, eggs and vanilla until well combined. Pour over dry ingredients and add in mashed bananas and apples. If you are using apple butter, add it now. Mix until everything is incorporated and there is no dry flour left.
Line 2 muffin tins with paper liners and fill the cups about 3/4 of the way up until there is no batter left. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean and muffins are golden brown.

*These are probably the best muffins I have ever made. They are so incredibly moist and delicious. I like being able to see the little chunks of apple along with the tangy bite of the bananas. These are great for breakfast, or anytime of day really! For an added crunch, you can sprinkle some raw sugar over the top (I forgot to this time!). Store these muffins in an airtight container for up to a week - if they last that long!

Keep my commands and you will live; guard my teachings as the apple of your eye. Proverbs 7:2
