• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted
• 0.5 cups milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
• 1 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and finely chopped
• 0.25 cups all-purpose flour (for streusel topping)
• 0.25 cups granulated sugar (for streusel topping)
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon (for streusel topping)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened (for streusel topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 0.75 cups of granulated sugar, 0.25 cups of brown sugar, 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 0.25 teaspoons of salt.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together 0.5 cups of melted butter, 0.5 cups of milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 large egg until well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the finely chopped Granny Smith apple.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup about 2/3 full.

Step 7

To make the streusel topping, combine 0.25 cups of all-purpose flour, 0.25 cups of granulated sugar, and 0.5 teaspoons of ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of softened butter and use a fork or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 8

Sprinkle the streusel topping generously over each muffin.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
