Sour Cream Apple Muffins

Healthy Recipes

This recipe serves: 12
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 45 minutes

6 tablespoons softened butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup all purpose flour

1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup applesauce
2/3 cup non-fat sour cream
2 Gala or Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and sliced

Preheat the oven to 350 F and spray a muffin tin with nonstick spray.
Beat the butter and sugar together with an electric mixer on high speed
until the mixture is light in color and fluffy.
Lower the speed to low and add the eggs one at a time. Add the vanilla.
In a separate bowl, combine the flours, baking powder, baking soda and
salt.
Fold half of the dry ingredients into the butter mixture using a rubber
spatula or wooden spoon. Stir in the applesauce and sour cream. Fold in
the
remaining dry ingredients.
Fill the muffin tins halfway with batter. Add a few apple slices to each
muffin and spoon the remaining batter over the apples.
Bake on the center rack until the muffins are golden brown and springy to
the touch, about 35 to 40 minutes.
