3 teaspoons baking powder
•
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
•
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
•
1/2 teaspoon salt
•
3/4 cup apple cider
•
1/4 cup vegetable oil
•
1 egg
•
1 cup apples- peeled, cored, and finely diced

•
1/3 cup chopped pecans

Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease the bottoms of 12 muffin cups or line with paper liners.
2
Combine flour, white sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a medium bowl; mix well.
3
Combine apple cider, vegetable oil, and egg in another bowl; blend well. Add flour mixture all at once and stir just until moistened; batter will be lumpy. Stir in apples.
4
Combine brown sugar, oats, pecans, and flour in a medium bowl for topping; mix well. Mix in melted butter until all ingredients are moistened and clumpy.
5
Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 2/3 full. Top each with a generous amount of streusel topping.
6
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 18 to 22 minutes. Let cool for 1 minute before removing from the pan. Serve warm.
