What You'll Need
- 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 apple, peeled, cored, and finely chopped
- 4 tablespoon (1/4 cup) butter, melted
- 1/3 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
What to Do

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
-
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and the salt.
-
In a medium bowl, beat together the egg and milk. Stir in chopped apple and melted butter. Add all at once to flour mixture; stir just until mixed (batter will be very stiff).
