My pick for this week's Wednesday with Donna Hay is Apple Date and Cinnamon Muffins with Maple Oats. Donna's muffin recipes are always winners in my house, so I was happy to make another of her great muffin recipes.
As with most muffin recipes, this one was easy peasy to make - no stand mixer required. The hardest part was chopping the dates and peeling and grating the apples.
I didn't have quite enough maple syrup left, so I used some golden syrup to make up the balance.
The resulting muffins were delicious:
The Medjool dates added a lovely moist squidginess that contrasted with the coarser texture of the oats. The grated apple also provided some welcome moisture to these muffins.
Verdict - I'd make them again.

Sounds like a great muffin recipe - I have a favourite cake with apple and dates so it is a combination I love and maple syrup with oats also sounds delicious
this sounds very healthy. dates are very trendy right now! hope it was delish.
I really like the sound of this, especially for when you don't have a stand mixer! :)
I have some Medjool dates and one apple, I could squeeze a batch of these out for the weekend. The texture inside looks beautiful.
Thanks for selecting this. I haven't heard, my hubby rave so much in a while. These were winners in every way.
I haven't baked with dates for ages - you have reminded me to do so again! These sound lovely.
Apple season is just around the corner here in the states, Gaye. I'll make a note of this for future use. I love the combination of Apples and Dates! Thanks so much for sharing, Gaye.
P.S. I'm still on a blogging break but just had to stop over for a visit. I'll be back to blogging on Sunday:)
Thanks for dropping by Louise.
I did make your muffin choice as we make muffins each week for a quick weekday breakfast...and these are really good. The ingredients just all work so perfectly together. Great choice, thanks.
