Apple-Cinnamon Muffins image

After combining other apple muffin recipes and making modifications based on my and other reader's suggestions, I decided it was time to write this down as it's own recipe. This is a simple, delicious recipe that makes good use of our home-grown apples.

Time 45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup grated apple
1 cup peeled, chopped apple
½ cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
¼ cup olive oil
3 tablespoons applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  • Combine grated and chopped apples with white and brown sugars in a small bowl; stir and set aside to sweat for 5 minutes.
  • Combine all-purpose and wheat flours, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a second bowl.
  • Stir eggs, melted butter, olive oil, applesauce, and vanilla together in a large bowl. Add apple mixture and mix until well combined. Add flour mixture and stir until completely mixed; batter will be thick like cookie dough. Divide batter evenly among prepared muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 19 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
