Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F and line muffin pans with paper baking cups.
In a medium-sized bowl, microwave diced apples with about 1/2” of water for about 2 minutes until slightly translucent. Drain well, then sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Set aside.
To prepare the topping, mix all topping ingredients in a medium bowl. Set aside.
In a large bowl, mix eggs with granulated sugar and vegetable oil using a hand mixer or wooden spoon until creamy. Add in vanilla, white vinegar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in sour cream, then gradually mix in all-purpose flour until slightly lumpy. Fold in the prepared apples.
Fill muffin cups 2/3 full with batter (about 1/4 cup per cup) and sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the muffins.
Bake for 15-19 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center of a muffin. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to a month.

Notes

Ensure the apples are diced very small for even distribution throughout the muffins.
The crumble topping can be customized with nuts or oats for added texture.
For extra sweetness, consider adding chocolate chips to the batter.
