Instructions
- 1. Preheat the oven: Set the oven to 180°C (350°F). This is important to ensure your muffins bake evenly and rise properly.
- 2. Prepare the muffin tin: Grease the muffin tin with a little oil or line with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
-
3.
Combine wet and dry ingredients:
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a spatula until just combined. Do not over-mix; a few lumps are fine for fluffy muffins.
Be careful not to over-mix as it will lead to dense muffins.
- 4. Fill muffin tin: Spoon the batter into each muffin cup, filling them about 2/3 full to allow room for rising.
-
5.
Bake the muffins:
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean and the tops are golden brown.
Ensure the muffins are cooked through; internal temperature should be at least 93°C (200°F).
- 6. Cool the muffins: Remove the muffins from the oven and allow to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
- 7. Mix wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and the stewed apples until well blended.
- 8. Combine dry ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Tips and Variations
- For a more intense ginger flavour, add freshly grated ginger to the wet ingredients, about 5 grams.
- You can replace some of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for added nutrition and a nutty flavour.
- Add nuts or chocolate chips for a more indulgent muffin variation.
