Author's Notes

Muffins baked with paper liners need to cool completely before trying to peel off the paper. This is to prevent them from sticking to the paper.
Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and set the oven rack to the middle position.
step 2
Generously butter 12 non-stick muffin tins or line them with paper liners.
step 3
In a small bowl combine All-Purpose Flour (2 cups), Baking Powder (2 tsp), Ground Cinnamon (1 tsp), Salt (as needed), Ground Nutmeg (as needed), and Ground Allspice (as needed). Set aside.
step 4
Melt the Unsalted Butter (1/2 cup) and cream together with both the Granulated Sugar (3/4 cup) and Brown Sugar (4 Tbsp).
step 5
Whisk in Large Eggs (2) one at a time until incorporated and light in texture. Then, stir in Vanilla Extract (2 tsp).
step 6
Add 1/3 of the Milk (3/4 cup) and then 1/3 of the flour mixture, whisking to combine. Repeat, alternating the milk and flour.
step 7
Stir in Granny Smith Apples (2) and Chopped Pecans (1/2 cup).
step 8
Scoop the batter evenly between the prepared muffin tins using approximately 1/3 cup of batter for each. The tins will be quite full.
step 9
Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
step 10
Then, reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) for an additional 8-10 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
step 11
Remove muffins from the oven and allow them to cool for at least 10 minutes before removing them onto a cooling rack.
