Trying to eat on as little money as possible.

Apple Muffins

For these, I use the small boxes of Jiffy muffin mixes. I used to be able to get these for .33, but they are now .55.

You will also need one apple, 1 egg, and 1/4 cup of milk (water can be substituted if necessary – or use 1/8th cup of water and 1/8 cup of milk).

I will generally use reconstituted powdered milk in baking to save money.

Directions:

1. Prepare mix as directed on the box.

2. Chop an apple and add to the prepared mix.

3. Bake as directed on the box.

Yield: 6-8, depending on the size of the apple. We usually make a couple of batches at a time, at least. This saves on the electricity needed to bake them.

Good with: Peanut butter, butter, jelly/jam/marmalade/preserves.

Freezer: Wrap individually in plastic wrap. I have a gallon size freezer bag for muffins. I just throw them in there. Sometimes I have a few bags going. Press out as much of the air from the bag as you can.
