Ingredients for Apple Walnut Muffins

  • Self Raising Flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • Oil
  • Vanilla
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 2 medium apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, and grated

How to Make Apple Walnut Muffins

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the grated apples, chopped walnuts, and maple syrup.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Fold in the apple and walnut mixture.
  7. Fill each muffin liner about 2/3 full.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Enjoy warm with a pat of butter and your favorite beverage!

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.
