Tips, food safety & substitutions
Nutrition figures are estimates only. Dice the apple small so it cooks soft inside the muffin. Allergens: egg, wheat (flour), milk if butter is used. Pakistani alternative: use local seb and desi ghee instead of butter. Store in an airtight box for up to 2 days. Do not use honey as a sweetener for children under 1 year.
