Ingredients

Units Scale

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup apple butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven and prepare the muffin tin: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. Combine the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the melted butter, apple butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
  4. Combine the wet and dry ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined—do not overmix.
  5. Fill the muffin cups: Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  6. Bake: Bake for 18 to 22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and serve: Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • These muffins pair perfectly with a pat of butter or extra apple butter.
  • Add chopped walnuts or raisins for extra texture.
