\"Recipes<\/a><\/p>\n

We’re a big fan of muffins. They’re very much like cake but somehow feel healthier, even if that is just an illusion. These ones are kept deliciously moist with the addition of apples, which bake to a wonderfully soft texture. We also love the addition of a crunchy streusel on top that browns to crunchy perfection. Best enjoyed with a cup of Rooibos tea.<\/p>\n

Streusel Topping
\n<\/strong>Melt the butter in a small saucepan. Mix the butter into the remaining ingredients using a fork, until evenly distributed. Set aside.<\/p>\n

In a separate bowl, toss the diced apples, macadamia nuts and 1 tsp (5ml) of cinnamon together. Set aside.<\/p>\n

Cream the butter and castor sugar until creamy and then add the eggs, one at a time, making sure that each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next one. Mix in the vanilla extract.<\/p>\n

Gently fold in the sieved flour mixture, alternating with the milk. Stir until just combined. Fold in the apples and spoon the mixture into the prepared muffin tins, filling each holder to about three quarters full.<\/p>\n

Top with the streusel mixture and bake for about 40-45 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.<\/p>\n
