Banana apple wholemeal cinnamon muffins

Banana apple wholemeal cinnamon muffins are a delightful and healthy treat that combines the natural sweetness of bananas and apples with the warm spice of cinnamon. These muffins are perfect for breakfast, snack, or dessert, and they offer a satisfying, nutritious option that's easy to make at home.

Ingredients:

2 cups self-raising flour
300g
1/2 cup vegetable oil
120g
3/4 cup milk (1% fat)
180g
1 apple
160g
1 banana
120g
1/2 cup brown sugar
120g
1 egg
50g
2 tsp cinnamon
6g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups with oil or cooking spray.
2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, combine the 2 cups of self-raising flour and 2 tsp of cinnamon. Stir them together to ensure the cinnamon is evenly distributed through the flour.
3. Prepare the Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, combine the 1/2 cup of vegetable oil, 3/4 cup of milk, 1/2 cup of brown sugar, and the beaten egg. Mix well until all the ingredients are fully combined.
4. Incorporate the Fruits:
Peel, core, and finely chop the apple. Mash the banana until smooth. Add the apple and banana to the wet ingredients, mixing until the fruits are evenly distributed.
5. Combine the Mixtures:
Gradually add the wet ingredient mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the muffins dense. It's okay if there are a few lumps.
6. Fill the Muffin Tin:
Divide the batter evenly among the muffin tin cups. Fill each cup about 2/3 to 3/4 full to allow room for the muffins to rise.
7. 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 or with just a few crumbs clinging to it.
8. 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.
9. Serve:
Enjoy your Banana Apple Wholemeal Cinnamon Muffins warm or at room temperature. They are perfect for breakfast, as a snack, or even as a dessert!

Tips:

- Make sure to use ripe bananas for better sweetness and flavor.

- You can substitute wholemeal self-raising flour to make these muffins even healthier.

- Grate the apple finely so it evenly distributes throughout the muffins, adding moisture and subtle sweetness.

- Do not overmix the batter; just combine the ingredients until they are well incorporated to avoid dense muffins.

- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
