SPICED APPLE CIDER MUFFINS

I'm not sure where I got this recipe, but it was hand written on a napkin and kept in my recipes. I do remember however, that it is one of the healthiest muffins as it was tucked in my low-calorie baking section. I recently found this again and had to make them over the weekend. OMG, looks like a lot of ingredients, but the texture and tastes was wonderful. A crumbly streusel topping made with a small amount of butter provides a delicious finish. No wonder I kept the recipe. I had to post of Zaar so I wouldn't lose that napkin again.

Time 35m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
4 teaspoons whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
2 tablespoons finely chopped walnuts (optional)
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 large egg
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup apple butter, such as Smuckers
1/3 cup maple syrup
1/3 cup apple cider
1/3 cup low-fat plain yogurt
1/4 cup canola oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F Coat 12 muffin cups with cooking spray.
  • To prepare streusel: Mix brown sugar, whole-wheat flour and cinnamon in a small bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in walnuts, if using.
  • To prepare muffins: Whisk whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg in a large bowl.
  • Whisk egg and brown sugar in a medium bowl until smooth. Whisk in apple butter, syrup, cider, yogurt and oil. Make a well in the dry ingredients; add the wet ingredients and stir with a rubber spatula until just combined. Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin cups (they'll be quite full). Sprinkle with the streusel.
  • Bake the muffins until the tops are golden brown and spring back when touched lightly, 15 to 25 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Loosen edges and turn muffins out onto a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.

Tips:

  • Muffin Tins: Use a standard 12-cup muffin tin for this recipe. If you don't have a muffin tin, you can also use a cupcake pan, but you may need to adjust the baking time slightly.
  • Muffin Liners: Muffin liners are not necessary for this recipe, but they can help prevent the muffins from sticking to the pan and make cleanup easier.
  • Apples: Use a sweet and flavorful variety of apples for this recipe, such as Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or Pink Lady. You can also use a combination of different varieties.
  • Spices: The spices in this recipe can be adjusted to your taste. If you like a more pronounced cinnamon flavor, add an extra teaspoon or two. You can also add a pinch of nutmeg or ginger for a more complex flavor.
  • Baking Time: The baking time for these muffins can vary depending on your oven. Start checking the muffins for doneness after 20 minutes. They are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

These spiced apple muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are moist and flavorful, with a perfect balance of sweetness and spice. The muffins are also very versatile and can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or a snack.
