Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ½ cups about 3 small/medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced very small
- 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ cups (62g) all-purpose flour
- ½ cup (100g) packed brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons (42g) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- ½ cup (118ml) vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (245g) sour cream
- 2 cups (248g) all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and line muffin pans with paper baking cups.
- Prepare the apples by placing diced apples in a medium bowl, adding about 1/2” of water, and microwaving for about 2 minutes until they start to become slightly translucent. Drain well, then sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar; set aside.
- Make the topping by mixing all topping ingredients in a medium bowl with a fork; set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix eggs, sugar, and oil with a hand mixer or wooden spoon until creamy. Add vanilla, vinegar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in sour cream, then gradually mix in flour. The batter may be slightly lumpy. Fold in the prepared apples.
- Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full with batter, approximately 1/4 cup per cup. Sprinkle crumble topping evenly over the muffins.
- Bake for 15-19 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool for 5 minutes in the pan before transferring to a rack to cool completely.
- Store muffins in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to one month.
Notes
For extra flavor, you can mix in some chopped nuts or raisins into the muffin batter.
Ensure apples are diced very small for even cooking and texture in the muffins.
These muffins are perfect for breakfast or as a snack throughout the day.
