Description

Delightful spiced apple muffins—very easy to make, and very rewarding to eat!

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Granny Smith Apples
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
  • ½ cups Canola Oil
  • ½ cups White Sugar
  • ½ cups Brown Sugar
  • 3 teaspoons Vanilla
  • 1 whole Egg
  • 2 cups Flour
  • 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
  • 1 pinch Nutmeg
  • 1 pinch Allspice
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 2 Tablespoons Milk

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Chop your apples into small cubes (no need to peel them), and coat them with the lemon juice to prevent browning. Combine oil, sugars and vanilla, and cream them in your mixer until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs and beat 1-2 minutes or until fully combined.

Sift together flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, salt, and baking powder.

Now, put everything together: add apples, dry ingredients, and milk to the oil/sugar/vanilla mixture. Stir only until just incorporated. Divide batter into little muffin cups (or spray the tin with baking spray). Bake 25-35 minutes (35 in my oven), until the tops are just starting to crack. You can also grease and flour a 9x5x4 loaf pan and bake a loaf of this stuff for 50-60 minutes, but I recommend them in muffin format—I really think they taste better that way. Remove from the oven. Wait a little before taking them out of the muffin tin, then place on a cooling rack.

These are really tasty and moist muffins! I did add quite a bit more milk to my recipe as the batter turned out really dry, but they came out perfectly with just the right amount of spice and tartness from the apples! Good recipe!
