Apple Banana Muffins

Apples and bananas are likely two of the most common fruits. They seem to pair well together, so why not put them together in a muffin? These muffins are moist, with a subtle hint of cinnamon, and a nice texture from the addition of oats. Some chopped nuts or dried fruit would add a little extra. For a little extra flavor and sweetness, sprinkle the muffins with cinnamon sugar before baking.
