Apple & Cinnamon Muffins
Muffins are always a favourite when it comes to picnics or afternoon tea in the garden. These apple and cinnamon muffins are a real treat and are very easy to make. Here's our favourite recipe.
What you'll need
- 1 apple
- 125g of plain flour
- 75g of butter
- 75g of caster sugar
- 175ml of milk
- 85g of porridge oats
- 1 egg
- 3 teaspoons of baking powder
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
- Zest of 1 orange
- Sprinkle of salt
How to make them
-
Pre-heat the oven to 180°C (gas mark 4)
-
In a bowl mix together the butter, milk, egg and sugar
-
In a separate bowl sieve together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt and then stir in the oats (reserving a few to sprinkle on top of each muffin), apples and orange zest
-
Pour the wet ingredients onto the flour mixture and fold together as quickly as possible trying not to over mix (over mixing will result in a heavy muffin instead of a light one)
-
When everything is mixed together, pour the mixture into muffin cases to about three-quarters full, sprinkle the spare oats on top and bake for 20 -25 minutes until well risen and golden brown
