Hints and Tips
Any variety of apple can be used for this recipe.
If you don't have buttermilk, simply add a squeeze of lemon to your milk and stir through. Alternatively, you can use full cream or skim milk.
We like to add either thin slices of apple or oats/seeds to the top of my muffins, but you can keep them simple and leave off any toppings. Or you could simply add a little sprinkle of raw sugar for added crunch.
Store the baked muffins in an airtight container and keep at room temperature.
These Thermomix Apple Muffins are freezable which is great for when you need lunchbox fillers in a hurry. Simply store them in an airtight container or sealable bags for up to 3 months, grab them out in the morning and they'll be defrosted by morning tea time.
Frequently Asked Questions
To make your own buttermilk, simply add one tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to one cup of milk.
Granny Smith Apples are considered to be the best variety of apple to use when baking due to holding their shape well during the baking process.
