Donut Apple Muffins

That is right you heard it, Donut. Apple. Muffins. Delicious apple muffins that remind you of a cinnamon sugar donut. My friend and I made these on my first morning in Maine and it was really tough to not eat the whole pan! Try her family recipe out at your next family gathering and I bet you will hear many compliments.

Donut Apple Muffins: Serves 8-12

1 Egg
1/3C Vegetable/Canola Oil
1/2C Milk
1.5C Flour
2tsp Baking Powder
1/2tsp Salt
1/2tsp Nutmeg
1/2C Sugar
2 Large Apples (I use Gala) - Chopped
2TB Sugar
1/2tsp Cinnamon

Mix the egg, oil and milk together then add the flour, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and 1/2C sugar to the mix and stir to incorporate. Fold in the apples and scoop into 8-12 greased muffin tins. Mix the remaining 2TB sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle evenly over the top of the muffins.

Place in a 400° oven for 20-25 minutes. Remove from the pan and serve. These are great the next day as well.

  1. The recipe actually doesn't call for apples, but in the fall when I have apples in the house it is always better with added fresh diced apples.
