Apple and Raisin Muffins

Apple and Raisin Muffins

Sweet or savory, muffins are always a perfect solution either for breakfast or snack and of course every one of us has its own favorite! These apple and raisin muffins will be one of your favorites for sure, if it is not already! Soft and aromatic, with tender pieces of apple and sweet raisins are nothing less than amazing. In this period of time that apples are in season and so fresh and tasty, it is an opportunity to give this delicious recipe a try!

Apple and Raisin Muffins

To make muffins you have to follow a very simple and easy procedure. In a bowl mix the dry ingredients and in another bowl mix the wet ingredients. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients, mix just to combine and the batter is ready! Nothing complicated! In this recipe of course there is an extra stage but still nothing difficult or time-consuming. I prefer to cook the apples for a while with sugar and cinnamon and then add them to the batter. A stage that in my opinion makes all the difference. The apples are juicier and tastier this way and so is the muffin, obviously!

Now that winter is back and the cold starts to be intense again, an apple and raisin muffin with the sweet aromas of vanilla and cinnamon to tickle the nose, can definitely bring warmth to everyone’s body and soul!!

Happy baking!!!!!
