Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Soak the raisins for 15 minutes in the rum before mixing into batter. This will plump, refresh and add extra flavor to your raisins. Set aside.
- To a small mixing bowl add the beaten egg, buttermilk, brown sugar and melted shortening; stir well to combine.
- To a larger mixing bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients; pour in the buttermilk mixture. Give a good stir. Add the raisins and apple to the batter and continue to stir just until the dry ingredients are moistened. (DO NOT OVER BEAT - IT SHOULD ONLY TAKE ABOUT 20 or 30 STROKES BY HAND.)
- Spoon the batter into 12 paper-lined muffin cups; fill 2/3 of the way.
- Bake for 17 to 20 minutes, or until lightly browned around the edges.
