• Scatter flour across batter surface, followed by baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Whisk 10 times until the flour is incorporated - some lumps is fine.
• Stir through apple -minimum stirs just to disperse.
• Scoop batter into muffin tin - I use an ice cream scoop - filling it all the way to the top. If using a scooper, leave it the slight ball shape (see video) - don't smooth the top. You should get 12 (see Note 3).
• Sprinkle with sugar (if using - makes surface slightly crispy), place muffins in the oven.
• Immediately turn down to 180C/350F.
• Bake for 20 minutes (standard) or 18 minutes (fan / convection) , or until a skewer comes out clean.
• Rest in the muffin tin for 5 minutes then transfer to a rack to cool.
• Once fully cooled, store in an airtight container - it will stay moist for up to 5 days. These also freeze very well.
