I love apples in any form, and I also love the crumble. Soft cake with apples, decorated with delicious crispy pieces. Apple Crumble Muffins have everything for lovers of crumble and apples. Apple Crumble Muffins will definitely try if you haven’t eaten such a combination yet.
How to choose the best ingredients for Apple Crumble Muffins
Apples: choose apples that do not catch on quickly, then you will feel them in muffins.
Flour: all-purpose flour will be good for these muffins, but it is worth sifting through it before adding to the dough.
Buttermilk: buttermilk is best for muffins, but you can use kefir or natural yogurt substitutes.
Starch: adding starch to muffins makes them fluffy and stays fresh for longer. It doesn’t matter whether you add potato starch or corn starch.
Eggs: eggs should be fresh for sure. But, don’t you know how to check if an egg is fresh? The expiry date on the package may be from other eggs? Check out the Tips and Tricks there to find out how to find out if an egg is fresh and suitable for muffins.

Tips and tricks
- Buttermilk and eggs are as good as they will be at room temperature (remove beforehand or warm in warm, but not hot, water) – I take it out earlier.
- If we don’t know how to check if an egg is fresh, it’s worth a very simple method. You only need to put the raw egg in a glass of cold water and watch it behave. When it sinks straight to the bottom and lies flat on its sides, it is very fresh and can be used, for example, for scrambled eggs or soft cooking. If the egg at the bottom of the glass tilts slightly or stands still, it is probably several weeks old. Then, of course, it can be eaten, but it tastes best when hard-boiled or muffins, cakes. My grandma taught me this method.
