How to Make Apple Lavender Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk, 1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender (or 2 tablespoons fresh lavender, finely chopped), 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, and 1 large egg.
  5. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in 1/2 cup diced apples.
  7. Fill the prepared muffin cups about three-quarters full.
  8. Gently tap the muffin tin on the counter to release any air bubbles.
  9. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup diced apples over the muffins.
  10. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  11. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
