Description
Warm, fluffy muffins filled with the essence of autumn, featuring tart apples and warm spices.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 2 cups diced apples (like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your muffin tin with liners and set aside.
- In a bowl, mix the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and melted butter until frothy.
- Slowly combine the wet and dry ingredients, folding in the diced apples gently to keep them intact.
- Fill the muffin cups to about three-quarters full and sprinkle a bit of brown sugar or a crumb topping if desired.
- Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Cool on a wire rack and enjoy warm with a drizzle of honey or a pat of butter.
Notes
Avoid overmixing the batter for moist muffins. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
