Ricotta and cinnamon apple muffins

These ricotta and cinnamon apple muffins are quick and easy to prepare, soft, delicate and fragrant. They are perfect for a simple snack or sweet breakfast. I covered them with many apple pieces covered with a layer of cane sugar and cinnamon. While baking these apples create delicious scent of a homemade dessert. It is a perfect recipe when we have ricotta cheese in our fridge that is about to expire as its delicate flavor goes perfectly with vanilla and juicy and fragrant apples.

Instructions ricotta and cinnamon apple muffins

• In a bowl mix 1 tablespoon of cane sugar with half a teaspoon of cinnamon. Peel the apples, remove the core and cut them into small pieces. Put in the bowl with the sugar and stir gently to cover them completely. Set aside.
  
• For this recipe all the ingredients must be at room temperature. This also means ricotta.
• Divide the whites from the yolks into two different bowls. Whip the whites until stiff and set aside.
• Add the sugar to the egg yolks and whip with the mixer. Now add soft butter and whip until all the ingredients are blended.
  
• Add ricotta cheese and vanilla extract. Ricotta does not need to be drained. Mix again to blend the ingredients.
  
• Now add whipped egg whites and incorporate them gently. Make the movements from bottom to top using a spoon or a silicone spatula to incorporate the whites without deflating them.
• Sift all-purpose flour with baking powder. Mix dry and wet ingredients with a spoon or whisk until the batter is without visible traces of flour.
