Apple Cinnamon Streusel Muffins
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups diced apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of flour, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
- In a separate bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of melted butter, 2 eggs, 1 cup of milk, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups of diced apples.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
- In a small bowl, prepare the streusel topping by combining 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Mix until crumbly, then sprinkle the streusel over the muffin batter in the cups.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Apple Cinnamon Streusel Muffins have a rich history dating back to the early 20th century when German immigrants brought their love for streusel-topped pastries to America. This delightful treat gained popularity in the Midwest, particularly in regions with abundant apple orchards. The warm, comforting aroma of cinnamon and apples baking together quickly made these muffins a household favorite. Today, they are a staple in many bakeries and cafes across the country, with chefs adding their own unique twists to the classic recipe. For the best version of this dish, look for a bakery that uses fresh, locally sourced apples and a generous layer of buttery streusel topping.
