Lunch/Brunch - Apple Muffin Recipe

This is really easy to bake. Simple ingredients that most of every households have. And no special baking techniques required. My family loves this. You can have the muffin with coffee or milk for breakfast, or tea as a nice afternoon treat. The sourness, chunkiness of the Granny Smith apples and the moistness of the muffin are irresistible.

Ingredients (for about 6 big muffins)

• 150g all-purpose flour (plain flour)
• 1.5 tsp baking powder (can substitute with 1 tsp cream of tartar + 1/2 tsp baking soda)
• 1/4 tsp salt 
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon ground 
• 1 egg
• 45 ml yogurt (no sugar)
• 60 ml milk
• 85g sugar
• 42g vegetable oil
• 1 Granny Smith apple (100g), peeled and cubed 

Method 

1. Line a 6-hole cupcake tray with paper cases. Preheat oven to 180C
2. Sift the plain flour, baking powder, cinnamon ground, salt in a mixing bowl. 
3. In another mixing bowl, beat the egg, milk, yogurt and oil to combine. Add the cubed apples, mix well.
4. Pour the batter into the flour mixture. Use the spatula to fold together the two mixtures (for about 10-15sec). Try not to over-mix. 
5. Spoon the mixture into the paper cases about 3/4 full. 
6. Bake at 180C for 20min. Insert a skewer to test the cake. 
7. Leave in tray for 5min until cool down before turning out to wire rack.
