Ingredients
  

  • cups all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cup sourdough starter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ cup milk
  • cups apples, chopped into ⅓ inch pieces

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375℉. Line a muffin tin with 12 muffin liners. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low-medium heat.
  • Remove from heat and add the butter to a large bowl along with the brown sugar, sourdough starter, milk, egg, and vanilla. Whisk smooth.
  • Stir in the dry ingredients until almost combined.
  • Add the chopped apples and continue to stir until just completely combined. Do not overmix. The batter should still have some lumps in it.
  • Use a spoon to divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Allow to cool on a wire cooling rack.
