How to Make Amazing Apple Nut Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1/2 cup milk or apple juice, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans and 1 cup peeled and diced apples.
  6. Fill each muffin liner about 2/3 full.
  7. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly over the muffins.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
