Apple & Cinnamon Muffins (蘋果肉桂鬆餠)

This is a good old favourite that everyone would have made it before. This is my first post so I am putting in something simple but delicious to have. It's good to put into kid's lunchbox or serve as a quick snack to feed the hungry kids after school.

Apple & Cinnamon Muffins

Make 12 muffins

Ingredients:

1 cup milk

1/2 cup butter
1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla essence

1/2 teaspoon lemon rind

2 large eggs

2 cups self-raising flour

3/4 cup castor sugar

pinch of salt

2 granny smith apples (peeled, cored & chop into 1cm small pieces)

Methods:

1. Preheat oven to 200C/400F, line a 12 hole muffin tin with paper cases.
2. Melt butter and milk in a saucepan at moderate heat, add in vanilla. Remove the saucepan away from the heat and let cool for a few minutes.
3. Beat egg one at a time into the mixture with an electric mixer until well combined.
4. Sift flour in a separate bowl and add in sugar, cinnamon, salt and lemon rind
5. Add the egg mixture gradually into the dry ingredients and finally mixed in the apple pieces.
6. Spoon the batter into each muffin cup until it is 2/3 full. Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until golden in colour. Remove muffins from the oven and leave them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before cooling on the rack.
