- Grease three standard 12 cup muffin tins. Set aside. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place oven rack in the center position.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, quick oats, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, allspice, and cardamom. Whisk until well sifted. Set aside.

- All at once, toss in the apples, walnuts and cranberries and fold them in by hand.
- Portion out the batter into the prepared tin, filling the cups 2/3 full. Sprinkle each with streusel topping. Depending on the size of your tin, there may be more than 12.

HEALTHY CRANBERRY WALNUT MUFFINS
We love these, especially in the fall! Though they're good anytime -- I usually throw a few bags of fresh cranberries in the freezer during the fall, so we can enjoy them year-round. Warning, this makes a large batch of muffins, usually about 18 for me, so make sure you have enough muffin tins on hand.

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe apples and cranberries for the best flavor. If your apples are tart, you may want to add a little more sugar to the batter.
- Chopped walnuts add a nice crunch to these muffins, but you can substitute another type of nut, such as pecans or almonds, if you prefer.
- Be sure to not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the muffins tough.
- Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full. If you fill them too full, the muffins will be likely to overflow in the oven.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The toothpick should have just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Conclusion:
Apple cranberry walnut muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. They are perfect for fall baking and for using up leftover apples and cranberries. These muffins are also a great way to get your kids to eat more fruit. With their moist texture, sweet and tart flavor, and crunchy walnuts, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
