How to Make Warm Spiced Apple Cinnamon Muffins

  • Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare muffin tins with liners or grease lightly.
  • Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Whisk until well combined.
  • Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth and creamy.
  • Combine Mixtures: Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Stir until just combined, then fold in diced apples.
  • Fill Muffin Tin: Distribute the muffin batter among the cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  • Prepare Topping: Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl, then sprinkle over muffin tops.
  • Bake: Place muffin tin in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Cool and Serve: Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For an extra touch, drizzle with a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and milk.
