Apple and Cinnamon crumble muffins
Ingredients:
Muffins: 2 green apples cut into slices, 2 ½ cups self-raising flour, 2 tsp ground cinnamon, 2/3 cup brown sugar, ½ cup finely chopped walnuts, 1 1/3 cup milk, 2 eggs, 1 tsp vanilla essence, 150g melted and cooled unsalted butter.
Crumble topping: ¼ cup brown sugar, ¼ cup plain flour, ¼ cup (45g) desiccated coconut, 35g unsalted butter
Steps: Preheat the oven to moderate, 180 degrees Celsius. Sift the self raising flour and cinnamon into a large bowl. Add the brown sugar and walnuts and stir together. Make a well in the centre.
To make the crumble topping combine the brown sugar, flour and desiccated coconut in a small bowl, then rub in the butter until the mixture resemble breadcrumbs. Place tablespoonfuls of the crumble mixture onto the muffin mixture.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a skewer inserted through the centre comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack
