Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup neutral oil (avocado or vegetable)
- 2 eggs lightly beaten
- 1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups chopped apples
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter cut into small pieces
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375ºF and grease a 12-cup muffin pan.
- In a medium bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together.
- In another bowl, combine the sugar and neutral oil. Stir in the beaten eggs, applesauce, and vanilla extract. Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chopped apples.
- Spoon the batter into the muffin pan, distributing it evenly among the cups.
- In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, two tablespoons of flour, and the additional cinnamon. Cut in the butter until crumbly, then sprinkle over the muffin batter.
- Bake for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan before transferring to a wire rack.
- Store leftover muffins in an airtight container.
Notes
Allow muffins to cool completely for best texture.
For added flavor, try using different apple varieties based on your preference.
To keep muffins fresh longer, store in an airtight container at room temperature.
