APPLE & CINNAMON MUFFINS

What horrible weather out there. Will it ever stop raining?





This is my latest Apple and cinnamon muffins recipe and so far the best. They are so delicious that I have to stop myself from eating the whole lot.

And best of all, it is super easy and super fast to make. No fuss- promise. This makes 8 muffins but you could stretch it to 9. 

Ingredients

180g plain flour
30g oats
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ginger
100g golden caster sugar
50g light brown sugar
90ml milk (semi or full fat)
80ml sunflower oil (or other vegetable oil)
1 large egg
2 large apples or 3 small ones

Topping: 1 tbsp demerara sugar and 1/4 tsp cinnamon


Start by sifting the flour, baking powder, salt and spices into a bowl. Then add the oats and sugars. 

In another bowl whisk the egg, add the milk and oil.

If you are using three apples, grate two and cut the third one into quite big cubes. 

Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix it in with a big spoon. Do not over mix, the lumpy look is OK. Then quickly fold in the grated apple.

Divide the mix into 8 muffin cases. Top them with the cubes- press them in a little bit. 

Lastly sprinkle the cinnamon and sugar mix.

Bake in a 190C to 200C for about 20 minutes. They are ready when you touch them in the middle with your finger and it springs back. Every oven is different so keep an eye on them.

And voila! Just transfer them onto a wire rack to cool.

Enjoy!!!
