Time 35m

Yield 18-24 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 cup buttermilk (or use 1 tsp vinegar in 1 cup milk)
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
2 cups diced apples

Steps:

  • Topping-mix all together, until mixture forms crumbs.
  • Batter- Whisk together egg, buttermilk, butter, and vanilla.
  • Stir in sugar.

  • Stir just until combined.
  • Do not over mix.
  • Spoon into muffin cups.
  • Sprinkle with the topping.
  • Bake at 375 degrees F for 20 minutes or until firm to the touch.

Tips:

  • Select the Right Apples: Use a combination of tart and sweet apples for a balanced flavor. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady are popular choices.
  • Prepare the Apples Properly: Peel and core the apples, then cut them into small, uniform pieces. This will ensure even cooking.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Freshly grated nutmeg and cinnamon will provide the best flavor. Ground spices can be used, but they may be less flavorful.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the Muffin Cups Properly: Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. This will allow the muffins to rise properly and prevent them from overflowing.
  • Bake until a Toothpick Inserted Comes Out Clean: This is the best way to ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
