Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups, or line the cups with paper muffin liners.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice; set aside. Combine the brown sugar, white sugar, oil, applesauce, pumpkin, buttermilk, and beaten eggs and mix until well blended. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Fold in the raisins and pecans, if desired.
- Divide the batter evenly in the prepared muffin pan. Bake in the preheated oven until the tops spring back when lightly pressed, 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool the muffin pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes before removing the muffins from the pan.

Tips:
- Use ripe apples: For the best flavor, use ripe, sweet apples. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady are all good choices.
- Grate the apples: Grating the apples helps them to distribute evenly throughout the muffins and also makes them easier to eat.
- Use a combination of flours: Whole wheat flour and flaxseed meal add fiber and nutrients to the muffins, while all-purpose flour helps to keep them light and fluffy.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
Conclusion:
These whole wheat flaxseed apple muffins are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They're made with simple ingredients and are easy to make. Plus, they're packed with fiber, protein, and antioxidants. So next time you're looking for a healthy breakfast or snack, give these muffins a try!
