Recipe for Whole Wheat Apple Muffins
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 pinch salt
- 1 medium apple, peeled and cut to small pieces
- ¼ th cup softened, cubed and chilled butter
- 1/3 rd cup + 1 tbsp soft brown sugar
- 1 medium egg
- ½ tsp cinnamon powder
- 2- drops of vanilla extract
- 1/4th cup chilled water
Cooking Directions
Chill the flour for atleast ½ and hour before starting.
Heat the oven to 180OC. Mix the baking powder, salt and cinnamon powder with the flour and keep aside.
Beat butter, egg and 1/3rd cup sugar together to a smooth consistency in a blender.
Add this mixture and chilled water to the flour and fold using a spatula. Then add the diced apples and vanilla extract, just fold lightly.
Grease or line a muffin pan, scoop the batter into eight muffin cups and bake for 15-20 mins or till a toothpick comes out clean (mine took exactly 18 minutes.
At this stage I like to dust the muffin tops with some fine brown sugar, though this is option optional. Then allow cooling on the wire rack before serving.
