Eggless Apple Raisin Muffins
This recipe for Apple Raisin Muffins is a simple, eggless treat perfect for breakfast or a snack. It combines whole wheat flour, grated apples, and raisins for a moist, fruity muffin.
Ingredients
Ingredients-A:
- ¼ Cup Water
- ¼ Cup Brown Sugar
- ¼ Cup Granulated Sugar
- ½ Cup Raisins
- 1 Cup Apples Grated
- ¼ Cup Butter
- A Pinch Cinnamon
- A Pinch Nutmeg
Ingredients-B:
- 2 Cups All Purpose Flour
- 1 Tspn Baking Soda
- ¾ Cup Walnuts Chopped
Instructions
- Combine all 'Ingredients-A' in a sauce pan and bring it to a boil. Remove from heat and cool completely.
- Combine all 'Ingredients-B' in a large bowl. Add the cooled mixture to it and stir until blended.
- Fill them in lined mini muffin tins and bake for 15 minutes at 350F.
Notes
- The above measurements yielded exactly 2 dozen mini muffins.
- The original recipe called for granulated sugar only, but I added a mixture of both light brown sugar and white sugar because I personally feel that the combination of these 2 results in a better taste.
- I did not add clove powder because I did not have it.
- After combining the wet ingredients with the dry, I felt that it required some more liquid, so I added some milk.
- I also topped the muffins with turbinado sugar before putting them in the oven.
- I baked a dozen first for 15 min and tested with a tooth pick to check if it was done. The tooth pick did not come out clean from some of the muffins so I baked it for another 2 minutes. By the time the first batch came out the remaining batter became a little more firm, so I added some more milk and baked the second dozen for 17 min and the tooth pick came out clean.
- Update: Originally I used ¾th cup of sugar both brown sugar and white sugar combined. But some of my friends told me that it was very sweet. I think I would reduce the quantity of sugar to ½ cup instead of ¾th of a cup the next time I bake it. So I have changed the recipe to ¼ cup of each sugar.
Taste & Texture
