Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 2 units Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Apple (peeled, cored, and finely chopped)
- 0.75 cups Fresh or dried cranberries
- 0.25 cups Brown sugar
- 0.25 cups All-purpose flour (for crumble topping)
- 0.25 cups Rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons Cold unsalted butter (cubed)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chopped apple and cranberries, ensuring they're evenly distributed in the batter.
Divide the muffin batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
In a small bowl, prepare the crumble topping by combining the brown sugar, flour, and oats. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over each muffin.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
