This recipe was passed down to me from my Nanny after she passed away last year. The most vivid memories I have of her are ones that include kitchens, cookies and muffins.
It was always so exciting as a kid to see what she had in her cookie jar or baking in the oven on the day we came to visit.
I was given her "Giant Cookie Book", along with a ton of random recipes jotted down on scrap paper. That's where I found this recipe!

With chunks of sweet, delicious apple and hints of cinnamon and nutmeg, these muffins are great for when you are on the go.


Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup chopped apple
- 1 egg, slightly beaten
- 1 cup milk (I used 1%)
- 3 tbsp butter, melted
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees
- In a large bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt
- In a smaller bowl, combine chopped apple, egg, milk and butter
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix until combined (don't overmix)
-Fill lightly greased muffin tins almost to the top
- Bake for roughly 15-17 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through
