Why This Recipe Is A Favorite
These muffins combine the natural sweetness of apples with the rich, creamy flavor of peanut butter. They are moist, flavorful, and perfect for a quick breakfast or snack. Plus, they offer a great balance of fruit and protein to keep you satisfied.
Directions
Warm your oven to 350°F and lining a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. In a big bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a small saucepan, melt the butter, then stir in the peanut butter and brown sugar until everything’s smooth. Take the pan off the heat and mix in the milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Pour this wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. If the batter feels a little thick, add a splash of milk, a tablespoon at a time. Gently fold in the chopped apple and peanut butter chips so they’re evenly spread throughout the batter. Spoon the mixture into your muffin cups and bake for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick poked in the center comes out clean. Let them cool a bit before digging in!
