Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: For the best flavor and texture, use a variety of apples that are slightly tart and hold their shape well when baked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups evenly: Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full to allow for rising.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
  • Let the muffins cool before serving: This will help them to hold their shape and prevent them from becoming crumbly.
