APPLE BRAN MUFFINS

This is a nice change from a plain bran muffin. It's somewhat healthier, because it's made with yogurt. I always double the cinnamon sugar on top (personal preference). Sometimes I add some chopped pecans (or walnuts). Don't let the long list of ingredients scare you - these come together fast.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe apples for the best flavor. Granny Smith and Honeycrisp apples are good choices.
  • Be sure to peel and core the apples before grating them. This will help to prevent the muffins from being too chunky.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the muffins tough.
  • Fill the muffin cups almost to the top. This will help the muffins to rise properly.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help to prevent the muffins from breaking.

Conclusion:

These double apple bran muffins are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They're also a great snack or dessert. With their moist, tender texture and sweet, apple-y flavor, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
