Apple Raisin Mini Muffins
This is a family and crowd favourite adapted from Paula Deen. The original recipe called for walnuts but I try not to bake with nuts. Also, I incorporated whole wheat flour to increase the fiber content. I should probably warn you… These mini-muffins are highly addictive. These Apple Raisin Mini Muffins are a perfect gift too. Guaranteed to please!
Apple Raisin Mini Muffins
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Water
- 2 Cups Sugar
- 2 Cups Grated Apples (Approximately 3 Royal Gala Apples)
- 2 Cups Raisins
- 1 Cup (2 sticks) Butter
- 2 Tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1 Tsp Freshly Grated Nutmeg
- 1/2 Tsp Ground Cloves
- 2 Tsp Baking Soda
- 2 1/2 Cups All Purpose "Unbleached" Flour
- 1 Cup Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees
- Combine the water, sugar, apples, butter, cinnamon and cloves in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
- In a large bowl, sift in the flour and baking soda.
- Add the cooled mixture to the bowl, a cup at a time, until combined. I find it best to use a spatula for this to get everything from the sides and the bottom incorporated.
- Fill greased miniature muffin tins with batter to the top.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
Enjoy these wonderful muffins!

Another one of my favourite’s. The children love these. I think I will bake some tonight. Mmm!
Thanks again Lyn!
I certainly hope you did! You’re welcome hon! These are awesome little muffins to be enjoyed by our wonderful children <3
I love that you added wheat flour to this. And their bite-sizeness makes them so much more dangerous to eat!
Chung-Ah, these are highly addictive. I’ve made them with regular flour also. These are a crowd pleaser! Every time I make them they vanish!!!! 🙂
When do you add the raisins? With the mixture that gets boiled or with the dry ingredients?
