How to Make Apple Crisp Muffins Recipe

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, ½ cup milk, and ¼ cup vegetable oil.
4. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
5. Fold in 2 cups peeled and diced apples.
6. **Prepare the Filling:** In a small bowl, combine ¼ cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Stir in 2 tablespoons melted butter until smooth.
7. Fill each muffin cup ¾ full with the muffin batter.
8. Drop a tablespoon of the prepared filling into the center of each muffin.
9. **Prepare the Crumble Topping:** In a small bowl, combine ½ cup rolled oats, ¼ cup all-purpose flour, ¼ cup brown sugar, ¼ cup chopped pecans, and ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
10. Cut in ¼ cup cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
11. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the filling in each muffin cup.
12. Bake for 16-20 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
13. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
