How to Make Apple Spice Sour Cream Bran Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, bran, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the sour cream, oil, eggs, and brown sugar. Mix well.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Peel and chop the apples. Gently fold the apples and raisins into the batter.
  6. Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
