Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 level cups apple pieces (peeled) (, 0.7 cm / 1/3" cubes (2 large apples, I use red))
1 tbsp melted butter (, for muffin tim (or use paper liners))
115g / 0.5 cup unsalted butter (, melted (1 stick))
1 cup (200g) brown sugar (, packed)
2/3 cup (165 ml) milk ((low fat, full fat, non dairy also fine))
1 large egg ((approx 60g / 2 oz))
1 tsp white vinegar ((or any other clear vinegar))
2 cups (300g) wholemeal flour ((wholewheat flour)(white also ok, Note 1))
1 tsp baking soda (bi carb) ((NOT baking powder))
1 tsp cinnamon powder
Pinch salt
2 tbsp raw sugar ((demerara sugar - large granules))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200C/390F.
  • Brush a 12 hole, standard muffin tin with melted butter, or line with paper cases. (Note 3)
  • Place butter and brown sugar in a bowl, whisk to combine.
  • Add milk, then egg and vinegar. Whisk to combine.
  • Scatter flour across batter surface, followed by baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Whisk 10 times until the flour is incorporated - some lumps is fine.
  • Stir through apple -minimum stirs just to disperse.
  • Scoop batter into muffin tin - I use an ice cream scoop - filling it all the way to the top. If using a scooper, leave it the slight ball shape (see video) - don't smooth the top. You should get 12 (see Note 3).
  • Sprinkle with sugar (if using - makes surface slightly crispy), place muffins in the oven.
  • Immediately turn down to 180C/350F.
  • Bake for 20 minutes (standard) or 18 minutes (fan / convection) , or until a skewer comes out clean.
  • Rest in the muffin tin for 5 minutes then transfer to a rack to cool.
  • Once fully cooled, store in an airtight container - it will stay moist for up to 5 days. These also freeze very well.

Apple nut muffins are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. With their soft and moist texture, and the combination of sweet and tangy flavors, they are a perfect on-the-go breakfast or afternoon snack. If you're looking for tips to make amazing apple nut muffins, you've come to the right place. In this article, we'll share some valuable tips to help you make the perfect apple nut muffins every time.

Tip #1: Choose the Right Apples

When it comes to making apple nut muffins, the type of apple you use can make a big difference in the flavor and texture of the muffins. Look for apples that are firm and crisp, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp. These varieties have a tart flavor that complements the sweetness of the muffins and a texture that holds up well when baked.

Tip #2: Use the Right Flour

Another key to making amazing apple nut muffins is using the right flour. For best results, use all-purpose flour or a combination of all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour. The all-purpose flour will ensure that the muffins are light and fluffy, while the whole wheat flour will add a nutty flavor and extra fiber.

Tip #3: Add Nuts for Extra Flavor and Texture

Adding nuts to your apple nut muffins not only adds extra flavor but also gives the muffins a delicious crunch. Walnuts, pecans, or almonds are all good choices for apple nut muffins. Chop the nuts into small pieces and sprinkle them over the muffin batter before baking.

Tip #4: Don't Overmix the Batter

One common mistake people make when making muffins is overmixing the batter. Overmixing can lead to tough and dry muffins. To avoid overmixing, use a light hand when stirring the batter. Mix the dry ingredients together in one bowl and the wet ingredients together in another bowl, and then gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. There may still be a few lumps in the batter, but that's okay.

Tip #5: Use a Muffin Liner or Grease the Muffin Tin

To prevent the muffins from sticking to the muffin tin, use muffin liners or grease the muffin tin well with cooking spray or butter. If you're using muffin liners, make sure to fill them about ¾ full with batter, so the muffins bake evenly.

Tip #6: Don't Overbake the Muffins

Overbaking can lead to dry and tough muffins. To avoid this, check the muffins a few minutes before the recommended baking time. Insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin. If it comes out clean, the muffins are done. If there is still batter clinging to the toothpick, bake the muffins for a few more minutes and check again. It's better to underbake the muffins slightly than to overbake them.

Tip #7: Let the Muffins Cool Before Serving

It's important to let the muffins cool for a few minutes before removing them from the muffin tin or muffin liners. Cooling allows the muffins to set and makes them easier to handle. Once the muffins are cool, you can serve them immediately or store them in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge.

Conclusion

Now that you have these valuable tips, you're well on your way to making amazing apple nut muffins. With the right ingredients and some careful techniques, you can create muffins that are moist, flavorful, and sure to impress. Whether you're making these muffins for breakfast or as a snack, they're a delicious and healthy treat that everyone will enjoy.
