These muffins are easy to make, and they're smack full of apple chunks and sweet cinnamon!
Servings: 12 muffins
Ingredients
MUFFINS:
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- ½ cup whole wheat flour
- ½ cup granulated white sugar
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup vegetable or canola oil
- 1 large egg
- ⅓ cup milk
- 2 medium apples (peeled, cored & chopped)
TOPPING:
- ¼ cup granulated white sugar
- 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a 12 cup muffin tin or line with paper muffin liners.
- In a medium bowl whisk together dry ingredients. Add oil, egg and milk and stir just until combined. Fold in apples. Divide batter between the 12 muffin cups.
- In a small bowl, mix topping ingredients, blending together with a pastry cutter or fork. Sprinkle over unbaked muffins.
- Bake 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center of muffin comes out clean.
Notes
- To lighten up the recipe a bit, fill the ⅓ cup measuring cup with ½ applesauce and ½ oil. The muffins will turn out just as moist.
- This recipe may also be made with white whole wheat flour in place of traditional whole wheat flour.
