Ingredients:
• 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup (120ml) buttermilk
• 2 cups (about 2 medium-sized) apples, peeled and diced
Directions:
1. I preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
2. In a medium bowl, I whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.
3. In a large bowl, I cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until it becomes light and fluffy.
4. Adding eggs one at a time, I beat well after each addition and stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually, I incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, alternating with buttermilk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients.
6. I fold in the diced apples until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
7. Spooning the batter into the prepared muffin cups, I fill each about two-thirds full.
8. Baking for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. After baking, I let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack for complete cooling..
