Ingredients to plan for these apple muffins

As for the ingredients for these muffins, we are on a classic recipe. You will see, the muffin dough is dense enough to hold the pieces of fruit (without them falling to the bottom of the cases). On the other hand, after cooking, the result is very soft, rest assured.

You will need them basic dry ingredients : flour, yeast, bicarbonate, salt, brown sugar. In this recipe, we also add cinnamon powder. For the other ingredients, plan on: butter, eggs, vanilla, liquid cream, maple syrup.

For apples, I recommend Granny Smith: it is better to have a little sweet apple, since the muffin batter is sweet. The result will thus be balanced. If you choose another variety, you will need to adjust the dose of brown sugar.

How to make chewy apple muffins?

This recipe is very easy to make ! Start by beating the butter and brown sugar. When the mixture is creamy, add the eggs, vanilla and maple syrup.

Separately, the dry ingredients are mixed together and then incorporated into the dough alternately with the cream. We peel and seed the apples: 1 diced apple which is added to the dough and 1 apple, sliced for the decor.

Finally, pour the batter into the cases, add the apple slices on top and put them in the oven! Let the apple muffins cool before tasting...

Tips for making this recipe a success

The ingredients must be at room temperature: especially the eggs, butter and cream. This ensures a good final texture.

Fill the cases to the top and bake in a preheated oven at 200°: this allows the muffins to have a rounded finish.

How to store these apple muffins properly?

Once made, apple muffins keep very well at room temperature. I still recommend an airtight container or bell so that they keep all their softness, until About 4 days.

If you put them in the fridge, these muffins will lose their softness, so I don't recommend it...

• Pour the dough into the boxes using an ice cream or tablespoon. Fill almost to the top so that they are well rounded after cooking.
• Before placing in the oven, arrange the apple slices on each box (cut before so that the slices are the size of the boxes).
