APPLE CINNAMON MUFFINS

I love this muffin, it's really yummy!!! I strongly recommended muffins lovers to try this recipe from bakingbites.com.

The muffins are moist and tender – thanks in large part to the apples, but also because they include oil in addition to butter. 

Oil not only mixes in to a quick bread easily, but it helps the muffin to retain moisture.The melted butter adds a lot of flavor that oil alone wouldn’t provide. say so myself!

The muffins are  topped with a cinnamon sugar mixture.

Apple Cinnamon Muffins

2 cups all purpose flour

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp ground ginger

3/4 cup brown sugar

1 large egg

2 tbsp butter, melted and cooled

2 tbsp vegetable oil

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup buttermilk

1 1/2 cups diced apple

3 tbsp coarse sugar

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Preheat oven to 375F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and spices.

In a large bowl, whisk together brown sugar and egg. Whisk in melted butter, vegetable oil and vanilla. Working in two or three additions, alternately stir in flour mixture and buttermilk, ending with an addition of flour and mixing only until no streaks of flour remain visible in the batter. 

Stir in diced apple.

Divide batter evenly into prepared muffin cups filling each to the top, or slightly over.

In a small bowl, stir together coarse sugar and additional 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon. Sprinkle generously over muffins.

Bake for 15-18 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean and the top springs back when lightly pressed.

Cool muffins on a wire rack.

Makes 12.
