1

Mixing the Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and a pinch of salt. This will give your muffins a solid foundation of deliciousness!

2

Preparing the Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup of melted unsalted butter, 1/2 cup of milk, 1/4 cup of Aperol (the secret ingredient for that extra zing), and 2 beaten eggs. Mix well until everything is happily combined.

Adding the Apples and Aperol

Peel, core, and dice 2 Granny Smith apples. Take a moment to admire their tart beauty. Now, fold the apple chunks into the wet ingredient mixture along with 1 tablespoon of freshly grated orange zest. Embrace the fruity goodness!

Combining Dry and Wet

Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Gently fold the two together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as we want light and fluffy muffins, not dense hockey pucks!

Baking Time!

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners for easy removal. Fill each cup about two-thirds full with the batter. Pop them in the oven and bake for approximately 18-20 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Serve and Enjoy!

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Once they're completely cool, it's time to indulge! Grab a muffin, find a cozy spot, and savor the delectable mixture of apples, Aperol, and pure baking magic.
