From Grandma's Home Cooking booklet - a favorite of the Washington Apple Commission. I love molasses in baked breads and cookies and the addition of the apple really sounds wonderful. Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup sugar |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 fuji apple, peeled, cored and finely chopped |
1/2 cup milk |
1/4 cup molasses |
1/4 cup vegetable oil (or could sub applesauce for the oil) |
1 egg |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly grease eight 3-inch muffin pan cups. In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Add apple and stir to distribute evenly.
2. In a small bowl, beat together milk, molasses, oil and egg. Stir into dry ingredients and mix just until blended. Fill muffin pan cups with batter. Bake 5 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees. Bake 12 to 15 minutes longer or until centers of muffins spring back when gently pressed. Cool in pan 5 minutes. Remove muffins from pan; cool slightly. Serve warm.
