Prepare and bake these delicious little apple and sultana muffins in just 30 minutes.
These delicate mini muffins are a great options for adding to packed lunches or taking as snacks for a picnic or a day out. They are a sweet treat, infused with ginger and cinnamon for a lovely hit of warm spiciness. They're perfect for baking with little ones - you can mix them with a spoon instead of a stand mixer if your kids like to give things a stir. Baking with kids is a great way to get them more interested in the food they eat and encourage them to try new things. Unlike our classic apple muffins recipe, Annabel Karmel’s version is made with dessert apples, for a sweeter taste.
