Delicious Homemade Apple Muffins Recipe: Warm, Buttery, and Irresistible

I could hardly wait to make these because they sounded SO good and I literally ate every single one of them (not all in one sitting of course). They were so much better warm with a little bit of butter on top. This is also a DaVita recipe and has been replacing my 400 calorie, carb-loaded muffins that I have been eating in the morning. These were pretty easy to make and even 11 year old Jace enjoyed these! 

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups chopped apples
2 eggs
1 cup monkfruit
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup water
1 tbsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees and spray a muffin pan with spray. Peel and cut apples into small pieces (I peeled the peeling off as much as I could before cutting into pieces). Whisk eggs in a large bowl. Add monkfruit, vegetable oil and water. Mix well and add vanilla. 


In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda and cinnamon. 

Stir flour mixture into egg mixture. Batter will be lumpy. Add apple pieces. 



Fill muffin cups 3/4 full. Sprinkle cinnamon and sugar on top of muffins. Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly brown. 

Enjoy every morning with a little bit of unsalted butter :)

Book Review and Summary - Prince Harry - "Spare"

Image
I may be one of the few, but I was intrigued by Prince Harrys' story, which prompted me to pick up his book "Spare." I have to say, as I first started reading, I couldn't put it down, I think I read 50+ pages the first day. I was aware of Prince Harry but knew very little about his life. I remember negative things in the news, all of the negative stories of him. He sounded to me like the "troubled" brother, and, unfortunately, he and everyone else believed he was. I also now understand the meaning behind the book title. The name "Spare" is a name that is described as the one that isn't important. Think of a spare tire, you are kind of pushed to the side until you are needed. As Prince Harry said, his brother was the "Heir" and he was the "Spare" and it was very unfortunate events throughout  the book that describe how and why he felt like this. He mentioned Willy (Prince William) and him were, "The Heir and the Spare. I

10 Ways to Make Parenting a Middle Schooler a Little Bit Easier

Image
My cousin and I were spending some time together a few days ago and she asked about Jace and how he was doing in school. After a few minutes, she suggested that I blog about it. Initially, I wasn't too keen on the idea, but after doing some research, I realized that parenting a middle schooler can be tough for a lot of parents (I got lucky and he is probably one of the easiest ones) at times so I decided to write down what I do to make our days better. Having a middle schooler is so different than having a child in elementary, to me. Here are 10 things that I/we have done that has really made our days easier and better together.  1. Be consistent - every morning I ask my son how he slept and when he comes home, I ask him how his day was. When we eat together as a family (2-3X per week), we each go around the table discussing our highlight of the day. If I somehow miss or forget the questions, he asks me what my highlight was or how my day was which I absolutely love.  On the same t
