Apple buttermilk muffins

Apple buttermilk muffins are a delightful treat combining the sweetness of apples, the tanginess of buttermilk, and the warmth of cinnamon. Perfect for breakfast or a snack, these muffins are both flavorful and moist, offering a satisfying bite every time.

Ingredients:

1 cup self-raising flour
150g
3/4 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
90g
1/2 cup oats
44g
1/4 cup sugar
50g
1/4 cup butter
54g
1 cup buttermilk
230g
1 egg
50g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
2 apples
320g
2 tsp brown sugar
6g
1 tsp cinnamon
3g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
2. Prepare Apples:
- Peel, core, and chop the apples into small chunks and set aside.
3. Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour, all-purpose white wheat flour, oats, sugar, and cinnamon. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
4. Mix Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
5. Combine Ingredients:
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to ensure the muffins stay light and fluffy.
6. Add Apples:
- Gently fold in the chopped apples until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
7. Fill Muffin Tins:
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
8. Add Topping:
- Sprinkle a pinch of brown sugar on top of each muffin for a sweet and slightly crunchy topping.
9. 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.
10. Cool:
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
11. Serve:
- Enjoy your apple buttermilk muffins warm or at room temperature. These muffins pair well with a cup of coffee or tea.

Tips:

- Ensure your butter is softened before mixing to get a smooth batter.

- Dice the apples into small, uniform pieces so they cook evenly within the muffin.

- You can add a bit more cinnamon or even a pinch of nutmeg for an extra warm flavor.

- If you prefer a sweeter muffin, you can increase the sugar slightly or top each muffin with a sprinkle of brown sugar before baking.

- Line your muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well to prevent the muffins from sticking.

- Mix the batter just until combined to avoid overworking it, which can lead to tough muffins.

- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely, ensuring they retain their shape and texture.

These apple buttermilk muffins are a delicious way to enjoy the classic flavors of apple and cinnamon in a fluffy, moist muffin. Easy to make and delightful to eat, they are sure to become a household favorite. Serve warm with a pat of butter or enjoy them as they are for a cozy and comforting treat.
