Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a 12 cup muffin tray and set aside.
  2. In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt and mix.
  3. In a jug, combine the egg, milk, vanilla, oil and pie apples.
  4. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a spatula until all ingredients are just wet.

  6. Bake for 22-25 minutes. Leave to cool in the tray for 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to further cool.

Notes

Tip
When making muffins you should only mix until the ingredients are just wet. Any more mixing gives you a heavy muffin.
Variation
I have used tinned pie apple for convenience but you may also use 1 cup of freshly grated apple.
Storage
I like to make a double batch of these and wrap them indiviually and freeze. You just pop them into the microwave for a minute to defrost.
