Fluffy apple muffins that will delight your taste buds! No mixer needed!

A few more tips:

According to the author, you don’t need to mix the batter too much—in fact, the more lumpy it is, the fluffier the muffins will be. I baked them with the fan on and it took me 5 extra minutes, so check with a toothpick before taking them out. I usually find runny yogurt in England, but the day I made these muffins I didn’t have any, so I mixed yogurt with milk and it worked! You could also use buttermilk or kefir. The recipe says it makes 12 regular-sized muffins, but I had a little extra and made 2 more. This recipe is by Nigella Lawson. Thanks to ANGOLINA for the step-by-step photos.
