In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, vanilla extract, eggs, and milk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Add the chopped apples and lemon juice to the mixture, and gently fold them in until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
