1 cup milk
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 cup chopped peeled apples, such as granny smith OR golden delicious

preheat the oven to 400 degrees. line a muffin pan with paper cupcake liners.

sift together the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon into a large bowl. set aside.

in a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, miik, and melted butter. stir into the flour mixture. add the apples and mix lightly. do not overmix the batter – leave it a little bit lumpy.

spoon the batter into the muffin pan, filling the cups three-quarters full. bake in the center of the oven for about 30 minutes, or until the muffins are firm to the touch. turn the muffins out of the pan and cool on wire racks.
