Save money by freezing Quaker Oatmeal Applesauce Muffins!

I love making muffins at home, because they are a nice money saver. Muffins in the store are EXPENSIVE and they just don’t taste as great as homemade.

If you want to really save on time, make a lot and then freeze them. That way you can just pull out the amount you need.

I thaw and heat them up in the microwave in just a minute. This is so convenient during busy mornings when everyone is trying to get out the door for school and work.

How to make oatmeal applesauce muffins?

First, preheat the oven to 400F. Spray muffin liners with non-stick cooking spray.

Next, make the streusel topping: mix oats, brown sugar and cinnamon together. Once combined, cut in butter. I use 2 butter knives and literally “cut” the butter into the mixture.

When you are done your streusel should resemble small crumbles.

For the muffins, mix together dry ingredients: oats through salt. Slowly mix in applesauce, milk, oil, vanilla and egg. Stir until well combined.

Use a large baking scoop to fill prepared muffin cups ¾ full.  Spring a generous amount of streusel on the top of each muffin.

Bake at 400F for 15 to 18 minutes or until cooked through.

Applesauce oatmeal muffins turned out great!

I was pleasantly surprised at how well these Oatmeal Applesauce Muffins turned out. I am not much of a muffin person, but I really like these.

The rest of my family loved them, too! I am going to make a double batch next time so I can stock the freezer.

These will be perfect for a quick breakfast and everyone just loves these applesauce muffins. If you want to try a few new things, try adding flax seed or dried cranberries to the muffin mix.

Another option to try is wheat flour. I have even mixed half regular flour and half wheat flour and no one even noticed.

Everyone loves these and the applesauce makes the muffins so moist and flavorful. They are sure to be a hit with your family.

You can also use wheat flour and coconut oil as substitutions in this recipe for applesauce muffins.

Tips: 

If you need more muffin cups, why not invest in some silicone baking cups. I love mine and they really do save you money in the long run.

Another thing I love to use is these baking scoops. I love these and they are so handy!

I use the largest baking scoop for muffins and cupcakes. They come in a set so they are perfect for all sorts of recipes.

They are very inexpensive and typically come in a set with different sizes. Amazon has some cookie scoops for very cheap. I have the three pack so that I can use these for cookies, cupcakes, muffins and even meatballs.

You can also make mini muffins. These would be fun for a party or really any time! If you don’t have a mini-muffin pan, I highly suggest you get one.

Mini muffins just simply taste great. They are faster to cook and easier to eat.

I love my Wilton mini muffin pan, but for just a few dollars more you can get a silicone pan.

As you can see this recipe is so versatile and can be made several different ways. Your family will never get tired of this recipe with all of these delicious ideas!

    Wow, these are excellent muffins- moist & flavorful. I added pecans to the strudel for texture but other than that, I made according to the recipe and was very impressed. These would be perfect in a gift basket.

  2. 5 stars
    These were great! I halved the recipe and skipped the streusel topping to save on calories and they were still delicious! I will definitely be making these again. Thank you!

  3. I made this recipe as a loaf bread I loved it! I made as directions and the flavor and texture was great! I will definitely make again.

  4. 5 stars
    Really enjoyed this recipe. On the 2nd time around. I start them at 400 for 5 minutes and then pull back to 350 for the next 15 minutes. Great flavour.

  5. 5 stars
    Super delicious and moist! Made with GF ingredients and added chocolate chips per my kids request. Will definitely be making again!

  6. Awesome! I’m so glad you enjoyed them and that the pears worked in this recipe too!

  7. Very good even without the streusel! We substituted frozen and mashed pears cuz I didn’t have apple sauce. Came out great even though the toddler helped- so I wasn’t able to mix well, or separate wet dry. It was a one bowl situation- and came out moist and flavorful!!!

  8. I haven’t tried that so I’m not sure but I have used 1:1 gluten free flour and it works great in this recipe.

  9. Can I replace flour with almond flour? I know you may not know, but perhaps someone else has made them that way. I am trying to find some healthy and filling alternatives for my father’s sweet tooth! Thanks in advance

  10. 4 stars
    ? What size cookie scoop do you use to make mini muffins/cupcakes.
    ALREADY HAVE THE SET OF THREE DIFFERENT SIZES AND EVEN THE SMALLEST ONE SEEMS TO OVERFLOW MUFFIN HOLDERS IN THE MUFFIN PAN? SEEN A NUMBER OF SMALLER/ DIFFERENT ONEs/PRICES- CONFUSING!!
    Do not want to end up with more utensils just sitting in a drawer that I don’t use.
    EVEN TRIED one regular teaspoon AND TEASPOON MEASURING SPOON. STILL MAKES A MESS. PLEASE HELP – TU, Mary Johnson

  11. 5 stars
    This is my new go to muffin recipe! I added some fresh grated nutmeg but otherwise stuck to the recipe. They are hardy and chewy and full of flavor!

  12. 5 stars
    These muffins were so moist & had so much flavor. I love how I can freeze them & pop them in the microwave when I’m on my way to work.

  13. Made these today and found them a little bland. I did add some nutmeg to the muffins as well as diced up an apple. I think I will try making them again and add dried cherries and use home made applesauce as it has a much better flavor. I am also going to try replacing the apple sauce with pumpkin puree on and one to one basis and perhaps add some cloves to that mixture. Thank you for the recipe that I can now modify to make my own.
