Tips:

Prep your apples correctly: For the best texture and flavor, peel and chop your apples into small, even-sized pieces. This will ensure they cook evenly and retain their shape.
Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough, dense muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined and no streaks of flour remain.
Use fresh baking powder: Baking powder loses its potency over time, so make sure yours is fresh for the best rise.
Don't overfill the muffin tins: Fill the muffin cups no more than 2/3 full to prevent overflowing.
Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure your muffins are cooked through.
