Categories     Afternoon tea, Breakfast, Dessert, Side dish, Snack, Treat

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

350g plain flour
25g butter
50g dark muscovado sugar , plus 1 tbsp extra for the topping
50g pecan , chopped
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
1 tsp cinnamon
284ml tub soured cream
1 egg , beaten
3 eating apples (about 140g/50z each) , peeled and cored
2-3 tbsp milk

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Line a muffin tin with muffin cases. In a small bowl, use your fingertips to rub 50g of the flour together with the butter to make breadcrumbs. Stir through 1 tbsp sugar and the chopped pecans, then set aside.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the remaining flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and a pinch of salt, then stir in the sugar and cinnamon and set aside. Coarsely grate two of the apples, then beat together with the soured cream, egg and 2 tbsp milk. Make a well in the dry ingredients and quickly fold through the wet ingredients, adding an extra tbsp milk if really dry. Don't over-mix or your muffins will be tough. It doesn't matter if there are lumps of flour.
  • Spoon the mixture into the muffin cases - they should be about two-thirds full - then sprinkle over the pecan topping. Thinly slice the final apple, then poke slices into the tops of the muffins. Bake for 20 mins or until risen, golden and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.

This is an old favorite of mine that I've made for the last 20 years or so. I think the original came from a magazine, and I tweaked it a bit to suit my tastes. If you don't have pecans, feel free to use walnuts.

Nice, crumbly type muffin with an addicting taste. You can get 2 dozen regular size muffins or about 4 dozen mini muffins. The original recipe suggests baking for 20-30 minutes, but I like these done a little more so they get crispy around the edges.

APPLE MUFFINS

Use buttermilk and applesauce to create these lighter-than-average apple muffins from Food Network.

Provided by Ellie Krieger

Categories     dessert

Time 55m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Nonstick cooking spray
1/4 cup chopped pecans
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/4 cup canola oil
2 large eggs
1 cup natural applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup low fat buttermilk
1 Golden Delicious apple, peeled, cored and cut into 1/4-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a 12-capacity standard muffin pan with cooking spray.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the pecans, 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar and the cinnamon.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose and whole wheat flour, baking soda and salt.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the remaining 3/4 cup sugar and the oil until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Whisk in the applesauce and vanilla.
  • Whisk in the flour mixture in two batches, alternating with the buttermilk. Whisk just until combined. Gently stir in the apple chunks.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared muffin pan and sprinkle with the pecan mixture. Tap the pan on the counter a few times to remove any air bubbles. Bake until a wooden pick inserted in center of one of the muffins comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Let cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the muffins to loosen them and unmold. Cool completely on the rack.

Tips:

  • Prep Work: Before you start, ensure all your ingredients are at room temperature. This helps them combine smoothly and evenly.
  • Muffin Pan: Lightly grease or line your muffin pan with paper liners to prevent muffins from sticking.
  • Measuring: For accurate results, use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients. This ensures the perfect balance of flavors and textures.
  • Mixing: Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Filling: If you're adding fillings like apples or pecans, be sure to toss them with a bit of flour before adding them to the batter. This helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the muffins.
  • Baking: Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Be careful not to overbake, as this can dry out the muffins.

Conclusion:

These Apple Toasted Pecan Muffins are a delightful treat that combines the flavors of sweet apples, crunchy pecans, and a hint of cinnamon. They're perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a sweet snack. With their moist texture, tender crumb, and irresistible aroma, these muffins are sure to be a hit with family and friends.
