Ingredients
4 large eggs, beaten
1 cup honey
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup granulated sugar
1-1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1-1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
6 medium Empire or Cortland apples, peeled, cored and diced
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 medium Empire or Cortland apple, peeled, cored and sliced into 24
thin crescents
Instructions
Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Grease 24 muffin tins or line them with
paper muffin cups. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, honey, oil
and 1 cup of sugar. In another bowl, stir together whole wheat
flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder and baking soda. Stir the
flour mixture and the diced apples into the egg-honey mixture just
until mixture moistened and smooth. Do not over-stir. Divide mixture
evenly into 24 muffin tins. In a small bowl, stir together cinnamon,
nutmeg and 2 tablespoons sugar. Add apple slices and gently toss to
coat. Place an apple slice on the top of each muffin. Bake 25 to 30
minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin
comes out clean. Makes 24 muffins.
