Sweet Apple Muffins

These sweet, soft muffins can be an easy grab-and-go breakfast, but you can also make a batch for afternoon coffee or tea with the friends.

Ingredients for 12 muffins:

• 1 1/2 cups diced apple, (8 oz.)

• 2 cups all-purpose flour

• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten

• 1/3 cup brown sugar

• 1/2 granulated sugar

• 1/2 cup salted butter, melted and cooled

• 1/2 cup whole milk

• 1 tablespoon baking powder

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a 12- cup muffin pan with cooking spray or line with baking liners.

Place apple and granulated sugar in a medium bowl; toss to coat, and let stand 10 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl.

Stir milk, melted butter, vanilla, and eggs into apple mixture; add to flour mixture, stirring until just combined. Divide batter evenly among prepared muffin cups.

Bake in preheated oven until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, for around 20 minutes, until golden. Cool in pan 5 minutes; remove muffins to a wire rack, and let cool 15 minutes to serve warm. Or let cool to room temperature.

Extra tip: 

• Don’t over-work these muffins, they only need mixing until it is just combined, which  helps to keep them super soft.

Bon appetit!
