Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with oil.

  2. Step 2

    In a large bowl, whisk together 1.5 cups flour, 2 tsp baking powder, and 0.5 tsp salt. Set aside.

  3. Step 3

    In another bowl, beat 1 egg, then stir in 0.5 cup milk, 0.25 cup oil, and 0.5 cup sugar until smooth.

  4. Step 4

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir just until combined—batter should be lumpy, not overmixed.

  5. Step 5

    Fold in 1.5 cups diced apple (about 1 large apple). Add cinnamon or nutmeg if you have it.

  6. Step 6

    Divide batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

  7. Step 7

    Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 18-22 minutes. Cool 5 minutes in pan, then transfer to a rack.
