Ingredients:

1/3 cup coconut oil
70g
1 cup dried milk
120g
1/3 cup brown sugar
50g
1 egg
50g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4.20g
1 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
120g
1 cup whole-grain wheat flour
120g
2 tsp baking soda
10g
2 tsp baking powder
10g
1/2 tsp salt
3g
1 tsp spice mix
2g
1.50 cups apple
190g
2 tbsp butter
27g
3 tbsp sugar
36g
1 tsp cinnamon
2.60g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with non-stick spray.
2. Prepare the Muffin Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut oil, dried milk powder, and brown sugar. Beat until the mixture is well blended and slightly fluffy.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture; beat until fully incorporated.
- In another bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, whole-grain wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spice mix.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
- Fold in the finely chopped apple pieces until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
3. Make the Streusel Topping:
- In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, and cinnamon. Mix until it reaches a crumbly consistency.
4. Assemble the Muffins:
- Divide the muffin batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups.
- Sprinkle the streusel topping generously over each muffin.
5. Bake the Muffins:
- 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 attached.

6. Cool and Serve:
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy your Cinnamon Sugar Apple Streusel Muffins warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

- Make sure your coconut oil is melted but not hot to ensure it incorporates smoothly with the other ingredients.

- Use apples that are firm and slightly tart for the best texture and flavor.

- Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense muffins; mix until just combined.

- For an even richer streusel topping, you can add chopped nuts such as pecans or walnuts.

- If you don’t have dried milk, you can substitute with regular milk, reducing the amount slightly to account for the liquid consistency.

- Fill the muffin cups about three-quarters full to give them room to rise without overflowing.

- Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5-10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy these cinnamon sugar apple streusel muffins warm from the oven, paired with a cup of your favorite beverage. Their moist, fruity center and crunchy topping are sure to make them a household favorite. Feel free to experiment with different spice mixes or types of apples to create your personal twist.
