Apple Almond Butter Muffins
One of easiest ways to make sure you eat a healthy breakfast is just a little planning and baking ahead. It is so easy to skip breakfast altogether or grab pour a bowl of sugary cereal if you don’t have a lot of time.
Please promise yourself to not skip breakfast. It is such an important meal. My husband is the one who made us think hard about it. The name “Breakfast”. You are “breaking the fast”. Your body has not had any food / nutrients for typically 8-12 hours. Breakfast gives you the nutrients and energy to start the day. Your brain functions better. Your body functions better and your metabolism will thank you tremendously!
Remember, eating small healthy meals every 2-4 hours keeps your body’s metabolism working at it’s optimal pace. If you go too long between meals, your body goes into fat storing mode. We certainly don’t want that!
These healthy Apple Almond Butter Muffins are another great breakfast and snack option for you. Combine them with a bowl of Greek yogurt or a piece of fresh fruit.

I always make lots of different healthy muffins for my toddler, and I found this recipe. It is fantastic! Moist and delicious, with great texture. Definitely will be making these again. I can feel good feeding these to my little one since they have protein, and aren’t filled with flour and sugar like a typical muffin (which are more like cake.) Thank you!
