Healthy Buttermilk Apple Muffins are such a treat yet are made with wholesome, healthy ingredients. Great for breakfast and even dessert. Bake a batch soon and enjoy!

 

These muffins are so moist and delicious. By adding buttermilk, it gives them a wonderful light texture for the most wonderful muffin.  They are a family favorite. I love baking these with my kids. My daughter Tori knows this recipe by heart and doesn’t even need to look at the recipe anymore. Try this for your family. I bet it will be a big hit with them as well.
