Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with paper liners.

  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the diced apples.
Baking
  1. Fill the muffin cups about two-thirds full with the batter.
  2. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  3. Let cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For serving, warm the muffins for an extra cozy experience. You can also sprinkle powdered sugar on top for a final touch. These muffins can be stored in the fridge for 4-5 days or frozen for up to three months.
