Picture this: sitting outside in a sunny fall day, with your comfy light sweater on, feet up, a cup of tea or coffee, a good book, or your tablet, phone, no, maybe nothing in your hands. Some music playing in the back ground, or not, a nice breeze, the crispy fresh air… and a perfect for fall muffin, moist, fresh, filling and delicious!
And then you close your eyes and think of how fall can be so perfect!
I truly wish you could have smelled these apple pumpkin muffins when I was baking them!
