Notes
- You can switch up the flavor of these muffins by substituting the cinnamon for apple pie spice!
- These muffins are not too sweet, so if you want a sweeter muffin you can use vanilla Greek yogurt rather than plain, or add ¼-½ cup of brown sugar depending on how much you want.
- Use paper liners if you want an easy clean up and if you plan to keep them in the freezer, for sanitary storing!
- Be sure to give the muffins enough time to cool before trying to remove them from the tin or else they might stick and break apart.
