Ingredients
  

  • 1 c flour
  • 1 1/2 c whole heat flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tsp cinnamon, divided
  • 1/3 c coconut oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 c brown sugar
  • 2 Tb unsalted butter
  • 3 Tb sugar
  • 1 c buttermilk, or 1 c milk + 2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 c walnuts, finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 c diced apple, unpeeled

Instructions
 

  • To begin, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a standard muffin pan with papers, and set it aside for now.
  • In a bowl, combine the flours, baking soda, baking powder, salt, 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon and the nutmeg. Stir those together and set aside for the time being.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut oil and egg. Beat these together with the wire whisk attachment of your mixer, for one minute.
  • Add in the vanilla and brown sugar. Beat these all together on high speed until the mixture is fluffy and the coconut oil is incorporated as much as possible – about 2 minutes.
  • While those are mixing, combine the butter, sugar and remaining half teaspoon of cinnamon in a small skillet or saucepan. Heat these over medium low heat until melted together and bubbling. Let it bubble for about a minute and turn off the heat.
  • Now that your creamed mixture is done, time to add in half of your dry ingredients. Mix those until just combined, then you will need your buttermilk. NOTE: If you don’t have buttermilk on hand, combine 1 cup of milk with 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. Stir those together and let them sit for about 30 seconds – tadaa! Buttermilk substitute!
  • Mix in half of the buttermilk, then the final half of the dry mixture, followed by the last of the buttermilk. Mix until just combined.
  • Fold the chopped walnuts and apple bits into the muffin batter.
  • Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin pan, dividing the batter as evenly as possible.
  • Now for your bubbly goodness. Spoon a little of the sugary mixture on top of each muffin.
  • You’ll put about 3/4 of a teaspoon or so. Again, just divide it as evenly as possible among the muffins.
  • Bake the muffins for 14-16 minutes, or until they test done in the center with a toothpick.
  • Serve your muffins warm or room temperature.
  • Enjoy!

God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change And though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea.
