How to Make Autumn Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with 18 paper liners or grease the tins.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups peeled and diced apples, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Gently toss to coat.
  3. Gently fold in ½ cup dried cranberries, ½ cup shredded carrots, and ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the apple mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and ½ cup vegetable oil.
  7. Stir the egg mixture into the batter until just combined.
  8. Fill each muffin cup about ⅔ full.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
