Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup apple cider
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: 1/4 cup turbinado sugar for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the apple cider, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. If desired, sprinkle the tops with turbinado sugar for a crunchy topping.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For an extra burst of apple flavor, you can add 1/2 cup of finely diced apples to the batter.
  • Ensure your apple cider is not too sweet, as this can affect the overall sweetness of the muffins.
  • These muffins are best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
