Ingredients for Apple Yogurt Muffins

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar + 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • Butter
  • Ground Cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 large egg
  • Vegetable Oil

How to Make Apple Yogurt Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. **Make the Topping:** In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup rolled oats, 2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter (cut into small pieces), and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
  3. **Make the Muffins:** In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup plain yogurt, 1 large egg, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, and 1/2 cup milk.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups peeled and diced apples and 1/2 cup raisins.
  7. Fill the muffin liners about 2/3 full.
  8. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the muffins.
  9. Bake for 23-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

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.
