Easy Apple Cinnamon Muffins

Ingredients

Apple Muffins

• 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
• ¾ cups white sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 egg
• ⅓ cups vegetable oil
• ⅓ cups milk
• 2 apples

Topping

• ½ cups white sugar
• ½ cups all-purpose flour
• ⅓ cups butter
• 1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

1. Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line 6 large muffin cups with paper muffin liners.
2. To make the muffins: Stir flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl. Mix in egg, oil, and milk until just combined. Fold in chopped apples.
3. Spoon ½ cup of batter into each muffin liner.
4. To make the streusel topping: Mash sugar, flour, butter, and cinnamon in a small bowl until mixture begins to cling together. Sprinkle topping evenly over unbaked muffins, pressing lightly to adhere.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool in pan for 5 minutes; transfer muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
