Step-by-Step Instructions for Apple Fritter Muffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a muffin tin by either greasing it or lining it with muffin liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Fold in the diced apples.
  5. Evenly distribute the muffin batter into the prepared cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
  6. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes.
  8. Prepare the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle over cooled muffins.
