Equipment Needed

  • Two Mixing Bowls

Allergen Information

⚠️ Wheat
⚠️ Egg
⚠️ Milk
⚠️ Tree Nuts (Walnuts)

Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line muffin tin with papers.

Tip: High heat ensures a quick rise for that perfect domed top.
2 ✓

In one bowl, mix dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, walnuts.

3 ✓

In another bowl, whisk eggs lightly, then add oil, milk, and grated apple (juices included!).

Tip: Oil keeps the crumb moister than butter, which solidifies when cold.
4 ✓

Pour wet mixture into dry. Fold with a spatula just a few times.

Tip: It's okay if it's lumpy! Overmixing leads to rubbery, chewy muffins.
5 ✓

Spoon batter into tins (fill 3/4 full).

6 ✓

Bake for 20-22 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.

7 ✓

Remove to a wire rack to cool.

Tip: Leaving them in the hot tin will cause the bottoms to steam and get soggy.

Recipe FAQ

Why are they tough?
You overmixed the batter! Once wet and dry ingredients meet, gluten starts forming. Only mix until the flour disappears, not a second longer!
