Well, the original recipe said 125ml milk, but i had to add 10ml more, if u feel you can manage with 125ml, bingo!!!! I had grated one apple and has chopped the other one, so as to add some bite size chunks into my muffin. I had used two beautiful red apples, but you can also replace with green apples. I am sure you will enjoy d tang & the crunch. I had also added a bit of brown sugar, along with the caster sugar. Remember, muffins should always be a bit undone.

My office folks enjoyed it. and U missed it!!!!! But i will always continue to love you.
