Notes

If eggs are not beaten until fluffy and pale, the muffins will not be spongy.

Adust milk quantity if the batter is very thick. start with less liquid always.

Feel free to use more chopped apple to make it more nutritious. 

Use good quality cake liners as mine stuck to the muffins a bit.

Store them in a closed container at room temperature if consuming within 2 days.
