How to Make Apple Butter Muffins
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
- In a large bowl, whisk together: 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, and 1 cup chopped apples.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together: 1/2 cup milk, 1 large egg, and 1/3 cup vegetable oil.
- Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Spoon about 2 tablespoons of batter into each prepared muffin cup.
- Top each muffin with 1 teaspoon of apple butter.
- Cover the apple butter with the remaining batter, filling each cup almost to the top.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional), 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the muffins.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
