Much to my surprise, a few days ago, my wife picked up a bag of white wheat flour at the supermarket. Much like oat flour, white wheat flour is just now becoming available to consumers. So while its been possible to get white wheat breads, baking your own stuff at home has been pretty tough to do. She also tried this out in her recent moist banana bread recipe, which came out tasting wonderful, without a hint of bitterness you usually get from whole wheat. So it made its way into this recipe as well.
So when my kids started clamoring for breakfast, she decided to give this a shot in her Low Fat Apple Cinnamon Muffin Recipe, which were a total hit in the household, so I decided to share. These were made as jumbo muffins, but of course, you could use a regular muffin pan, and each one would have fewer calories. Finally, the apple flavor is not overpowering, as the recipe takes advantage of the low number of calories in apples, by using apple sauce to reduce the fat content, which in turn cuts calories. Enjoy!
