Rhonda Urich was thrilled when we lightened up her Morning Glory Muffins. "In fact, I made a double batch because they freeze so well," she writes from Loveland, Colorado. "My family can't wait to have them again, and I'm adding this makeover recipe to my list of favorites."

These muffins are so good! They're moist and fluffy, with a nice sweetness from the apples and cinnamon. I also love that they're made with whole wheat flour and oats, so they're a bit healthier than your average muffin.
