Oat Apple Muffins for the Busy

 Hello world!

The end of the semester is coming and boy has it been busy! So busy in fact that I had a hard time doing volunteer hours outside of school functions. My professor wanted us to do some volunteer work for a grade, but unfortunately I did not get the time to. Fortunately my professor is very kind and understanding so, she gave us an alternative assignment to make a recipe for a specific group of people. The group of people I chose were busy people looking to add some fiber into their diet.

Fun fact: Women should get 21-25 grams of fiber daily and men should get 30-38 grams daily.

Another fun fact: Most people don't meet those needs!

Although this recipe, admittedly, doesn't have a whole lot of fiber, it does have some and a lot of people get little to none. So, if you want something a little sweet, but good for you then check out the video and the recipe below!
