Ingredients
-
2 cups white whole-wheat flour
-
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
-
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
-
½ teaspoon baking soda
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
-
¾ cup buttermilk
-
¾ cup packed light brown sugar
-
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
-
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
-
2 cups finely chopped peeled apples, preferably Gala, Fuji or Honeycrisp
-
2 tablespoons white sugar
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. Coat with cooking spray.
-
Whisk flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk eggs, buttermilk, brown sugar and vanilla in a medium bowl until smooth. Pour the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture; fold gently until just combined. Stir in butter until well incorporated. Fold in apples.
-
Scoop about 1/3 cup batter into each prepared muffin cup. Sprinkle evenly with granulated sugar. Bake until the muffins are puffed and a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Let cool for about 20 minutes.
