One of my favorite snacks is a sliced apple with some peanut butter slathered onto the slices. With that snack in mind, yesterday I dug some apple slices out of the freezer and got to experimenting with some muffins. This was the end result and pretty darn yummy. This recipe is gluten-free, dairy-free, and egg-free for those of you who need it, even if you don’t need it you’ll find these filling and a nice thing to stick into your lunch box.
