I grew up eating muffins at least one morning a week for breakfast and as an adult they tend to be one of my go-to snacks or on the go breakfasts but hidden inside those luscious little packages are hidden calories, tons of sugar and all the unnecessary fat we are trying to avoid. This Low Fat Apple Spice Muffin recipe is chock full of flavor and of course weighs in at only 3 Weight Watchers Points per muffin they are easy to keep in your daily routine for breakfast alongside a nice piece of fruit and some fat free Greek Yogurt.
Serve these muffins with a spritz of margarine spray fresh from the oven for a warm and healthy breakfast or a great after dinner treat alongside your favorite blend of spiced tea or coffee. These muffins may also be made in larger batches and wrapped individually in plastic wrap, labeled and stored in the freezer for up to 3 months at a time for easy grab, reheat and go breakfasts on the run.
I love to freeze ingredients when cooking! It saves me time and money! Low Fat Apple Spice Muffins are moist and delicious and have only 3 Weight Watchers Points.
