Apple Cinnamon Muffins with Powdered Sugar
Diced apple folded through a cinnamon-scented batter bakes into soft, fruity pockets in every muffin. A snowy dusting of powdered sugar is all they need, making them an easy match for a cold glass of milk.
Test kitchen note: Dice the apples no larger than 1/4 inch; bigger chunks release too much juice and leave damp tunnels in the crumb.
Method 6 steps
-
Heat the oven to 375F and grease or line 10 muffin cups.
-
Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a bowl.
-
In another bowl, whisk the brown sugar, egg, yogurt and oil until smooth.
-
Add the dry ingredients and stir a few times, then fold in the diced apple until no flour streaks remain.
-
Divide among the cups and bake 22 to 24 minutes, until the tops spring back.
-
Cool the muffins completely, then sift powdered sugar generously over the tops just before serving.
That is the whole pie. Enjoy every slice.
