- 2 large tart apples – peeled cored and coarsely chopped
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 tsp of Season with Spice's ground Ceylon Cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp of cardamom powder
- 1/8 tsp of ground clove

- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1/3 cup yogurt I used Greek yogurt
For the topping:
- 1 tbsp raw sugar or brown sugar
- 1 tsp Ceylon Cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F. Line a standard 12-cup muffin pan with muffin cups.
- In a large bowl, combine flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, Ceylon cinnamon, ground cardamom & ground clove.
- In another bowl, combine oil, maple syrup, egg, yogurt, and vanilla extract. Mix well. Then add in the flour mixture, stirring just until moist. Finally, fold in the apple chunks.
- Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin cups and fill it to the top of each cup as there is little rise to the muffins. In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle over the batter.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Cool the muffins for 5 minutes in the pan. Then serve warm with butter.
