Yield: one dozen

2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup apple, peeled, cored and finely diced
12 caramels, unwrapped and diced

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl; set aside. In a separate large bowl, mix together egg, milk, butter and vanilla; add flour mixture, stirring just until blended. Stir in apples and caramels. Divide batter evenly among 12 greased muffin cups; bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes, or until tops spring back when lightly pressed. Serve warm.

Tip: For the tenderest muffins, stir batter just until moistened…a few lumps won't matter.
