CommonGround Nebraska volunteer Paula Peterson shares her Apple Fritter Muffin Recipe.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 Cups All-purpose Flour
- 2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1 Teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
- 6 Tablespoons Cold Butter
- 1 Large Egg
- 1 Cup Honeycrisp Apples (chopped)
- 1/2 Cup Light Brown Sugar (packed)
- 1 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 Cup Milk
- 1 Teaspoon Vanilla
Glaze
- 1 Cup Confectioners Sugar
- 2 Tablespoons Milk
- 1 Teaspoon Vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line mini muffin pans with wrappers or grease very well.
- Whisk together all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a large bowl.
- Cut in butter with pastry blender or grater until mixture resembles coarse crumbles.
- Whisk milk, egg and vanilla together in a cup.
- Stir into flour mixture until combined: stir in chopped apple. Using a tablespoon or small scoop fill the muffin tins.
- Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted near the center of fritters comes out clean, about 6 to 8 minutes. Remove to a cooling rack.
- Whisk together powdered sugar, milk and vanilla. Brush a thin layer of glaze over the muffins.
- You can use regular muffin tins, large muffins or even do a loaf pan. Baking times change regular about 10 to 12 minutes, large 15 to 20 minutes and a loaf pan 45 to 50 minutes.
