step by step
Method
- Step 1
Make the crumble/streusel
- In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon and salt.
- Add the diced butter and work it into the flour with your fingers until the mixture resembles crumbs; squeeze a handful and break it apart for bigger chunks.
- Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Step 2
Make the apple pie filling
- Combine the apples, butter, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon and nutmeg in a medium pan over medium-low heat, stirring frequently until the butter is melted and the sugar dissolved.
- Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Set aside to cool.
- Step 3
Preheat the oven and prepare the dry ingredients
- Preheat the oven to 220 °C (425 °F) and line a muffin tin.
- In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt; set aside.
- Step 4
Cream the butter and sugars
- In a large bowl beat the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.
- Step 5
Make the muffin batter
- Add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk, mixing until just combined.
- Toss the chopped apples in the flour and fold into the batter.
- Step 6
Assemble the muffins
- Scoop the batter evenly into each muffin liner.
- Top each muffin with a spoonful of apple pie filling, then sprinkle with the crumble and gently press so it sticks to the filling.
- Step 7
Bake the muffins
- Bake for 5 minutes at 220 °C (425 °F), then reduce the oven temperature to 175 °C (350 °F) without opening the oven.
- For regular muffins bake an additional 15–18 minutes; for jumbo muffins bake an additional 25–30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Step 8
Finish and serve
- Optional: drizzle with caramel sauce, if desired.
