Apple Streusel Muffins Recipe

Ingredients:

For the Streusel:

  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

For the Muffins:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk (or substitute with 1/2 cup milk mixed with 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice or white vinegar, let sit for 5 minutes)
  • 1 1/2 cups peeled and diced apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease them lightly.
  2. Make the Streusel: In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, cold butter pieces, and cinnamon. Use your fingers or a fork to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
  3. Prepare the Muffin Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined.
  5. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until well incorporated. Then, mix in the vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Fold in the Apples: Gently fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  8. Fill the Muffin Cups: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  9. Add Streusel Topping: Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over each muffin.
  10. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  11. Cool: Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  12. Serve: Once cooled, serve the apple streusel muffins and enjoy! They are best enjoyed the day they are made but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

These muffins are filled with tender chunks of apple and topped with a sweet and crunchy streusel topping, making them perfect for breakfast or as a snack. Enjoy!
