Description

Attention: muffins should be baked only in a preheated oven! Otherwise, they won't rise. I have a less powerful oven at home, so I bake the muffins like this: for the first 5–7 minutes, I keep them at a high temperature, then I lower it and bake for another 20–25 minutes. This way, the muffins rise, and the bottom doesn't burn.

Ingredients

Wheat Flour - 8.5 oz
Baking Powder - 1½ teaspoons
Ground Oats - 2.6 oz
Brown Sugar - 3 oz
Cinnamon - ½ tablespoons
Salt - ½ teaspoons
Safflower Oil - 3 fl oz
Farm fresh eggs - 2 pieces
Apple - 7.9 oz
Pears - 5.3 oz
1% Kefir - 5 fl oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 401°F.

Step 2

Mix the flour, oats, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cinnamon.

Step 3

Add the grated apples and diced pears, and mix: the flour should coat all the pieces to slow down the oxidation process.

Step 4

Combine the milk, oil, and eggs, then add to the batter and mix gently.

Step 5

Spoon the batter into greased muffin tins. You can sprinkle some sugar on top.

Step 6

Bake the muffins for 20–25 minutes until golden brown. Check for doneness with a wooden stick — it should come out dry after being inserted into a muffin.
