Recipe of the day: Apple muffins

Today's featured recipe is for apple muffins, a delightful treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast or as a snack during teatime. These muffins are made with wheat bran flour, cake flour, bicarbonate of soda, salt, and brown sugar, providing a wholesome base. Eggs, canola oil, and buttermilk are whisked together to form the wet mixture. This blend is then folded into the dry ingredients until just combined, ensuring the muffins have the right texture.

The star of the recipe is the fresh Pink Lady® apples, both chopped and sliced. The chopped apples and dried cranberries are folded into the batter, adding bursts of flavor and texture. Fresh apple slices are placed on top of each muffin before baking, creating a visually appealing presentation.

To bake these muffins, preheat your oven to 180°C. Spoon the batter into a 12-cup muffin tin. Baking time is approximately 20 to 25 minutes, or until the muffins are cooked through. Once baked, allow the muffins to cool before serving. This recipe is a great way to incorporate fiber, vitamin C, boron, and pectin into your diet, thanks to the apple skin left on during preparation. Enjoy these apple muffins as a nutritious and delicious snack!
