Apple and raisin crunchy topped muffins

Apple and raisin crunchy topped muffins are a delightful and healthy treat. Packed with fresh apples, sweet raisins, and a hint of cinnamon, these muffins are perfect for breakfast or as a snack. The crunchy topping adds a satisfying texture to each bite, making them irresistible.

Ingredients:

2 cups self-raising flour
300g
2 tsp brown sugar
6g
1 tsp cinnamon
3g
1/2 cup canola oil
120g
1/2 cup apple juice
120g
1 egg
50g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
2 apples
320g
4 cups raisins
720g
2 tbsp walnuts
30g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
2. Prepare Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the self-raising flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon until well combined.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients:
In another bowl, combine the canola oil, apple juice, egg, and vanilla extract. Beat lightly until the ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
4. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures:
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir just until combined and be careful not to overmix; the batter should be a little lumpy.
5. Add Apples and Raisins:
Gently fold in the diced apples and raisins.
6. Fill Muffin Cups:
Evenly divide the muffin batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
7. Prepare Crunchy Topping:
In a small bowl, mix the chopped walnuts with a little extra brown sugar and cinnamon if desired. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the tops of the muffin batter in the cups.
8. Bake:
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
9. Cool:
Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Serve:
Serve these delicious apple and raisin muffins warm or at room temperature. They make for a delightful breakfast treat or a tasty snack!

Tips:

- Ensure the apples are finely chopped for even distribution in the muffins.

- If you prefer a less sweet muffin, you can reduce the quantity of raisins.

- For an extra crunchy top, consider adding a sprinkle of brown sugar and extra walnuts before baking.

- Use liners or grease your muffin tin well to prevent sticking.

Baking these apple and raisin crunchy topped muffins is an easy and rewarding experience. By following the steps and tips provided, you'll be able to create a batch of moist, flavorful, and delicious muffins that are perfect for any occasion.
