- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.

- Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth and well-combined.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy.

- Scoop the Batter: Spoon the batter into the muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ of the way full.
- Cinnamon-Sugar Topping: Mix the cinnamon and sugar for the topping, then sprinkle it generously over the muffin batter.
- Bake: Bake the muffins for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool: Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notizen
Apple Selection: Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Fuji apples work best for baking because they hold their shape and provide a balance of sweetness and tartness.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature, or freeze for up to 3 months.
Dairy-Free Option: Substitute butter with dairy-free margarine and use almond milk or coconut milk for a dairy-free version.
Extra Add-ins: Add chopped walnuts or raisins to the batter for extra flavor and texture.
