- Add the apple, walnuts and sugar, mix well and makea well in the centre.
- In another bowl mix the milk, egg and butter.
- Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ones all at once. Using a fork, stir and fold the ingredients together only until it is all wet, it doesn't even matter if there are small areas of flour about. Do not over mix, this is the main secret of good muffins!
- Spoon the mixture into muffin tins, filling them about 2/3rds and bake for approximately 20 -25 minutes for normal size and around 10 mins longer for texas size. They are ready when turning golden brown and a skewer comes out clean.
- Place muffins on a wire rack to cool.

- 2. In a separate bowl melt the butter, then mix in the apple sauce, milk & egg. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients & give it a good stir. It's best if you leave it a little lumpy!
- 3. Line a 12 hole bun tin with paper cases & divide the mixture evenly.
- 4. Add a sprinkling of oats to the top of each muffin, then bake at 200C/GM7 for 15-20 minutes until the tops are golden.
- 5. Leave them to rest in the tin for 10 minutes, then turn out to cool. Or if you're impatient like me, wait approximately 3 minutes then take one out of the tin & enjoy whilst still warm!
