Apples apples..soo many apples


Oh so Yummy Apple Muffins
(makes about 9 big ones)


Da Muffin


1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup brown sugar (if you prefer white sugar I suggest 1/2 cup white sugar and 1/4 cup brown sugar mixture)
½ tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup runny margarine or vegetable oil
½ tsp vanilla
1 egg
2/4 cup buttermilk (if you use milk then it's 1/3 cup)
1 - 2 cups of fresh apple, chopped (you can also use peaches, pears, blueberries, raspberries..you name it!)


Topping


½ cup brown or white sugar, which you prefer :) in the pic is a version with white sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup butter, room tempereture
1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon


¤ Preheat oven to 400 F ( 200 C ). Grease muffin cups or line with muffin liners.
¤ Combine flour, sugar, salt and baking powder in a bowl. Then add egg, runny margarine or vegetable oil, vanilla extract and the buttermilk in the flour mixture. Mix with a fork or if you are making a larger batch use an electric mixer.
¤ Fold in the chopped apples..nom nom
¤ Fill the muffin cups right to the top and don't forget the topping!
¤ Topping: Just mix together the sugar, flour, butter and cinnamon. Mixing can be done with a fork. Then sprinkle over the muffins before baking.
¤ Bake for 18 minutes in a preheated oven, yum yum...


Make yourself a cup of tea and enjoy!
