Nutrition facts (per portion): 1509 kJ / 360 kcal

50 g chopped almonds
275 g flour
2 pinches of ground cinnamon
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
80 g sugar
2 eggs
7 tbsp. vegetable oil
300 ml buttermilk
4 tbsp. Kikkoman naturally brewed soy sauce
2 sour apples (e.g. Boskop, Cox Orange)

For the frosting:

100 g butter
2 tbsp. sugar
1 pack of vanilla sugar
200 g cream cheese

Preparation

Toast the almonds in a non-stick pan until golden brown. Mix together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and sugar. Stir in the eggs, oil, buttermilk and soy sauce. Peel, quarter and de-core the apples, cut them into small pieces and stir into the mixture with the almonds.

Put the mixture into a muffin pan lined with paper cases (12 cups) and bake in a pre-heated oven at 180°C (gas mark 3, convection oven 160 ℃) for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Leave the finished muffins to cool on a rack.

Cream the butter, sugar and vanilla sugar. Carefully stir in the cream cheese and scoop the mixture into a piping bag with a star-shaped nozzle. Frost the muffins and garnish with the toasted almonds if you like.
