Autumn is around us now which means more time inside due to the colder, darker night but at the same time looking at the positive can also mean more time in the kitchen and new ingredients to use in recipes!
I started off by using one of my all time favourite muffin recipes but swapping a few of the ingredients within the recipe to suit this time of year.
Adding some grated fresh apple and cinnamon brings these muffins perfectly suited for this time of year!
