Apple cinnamon muffins

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 medium apple - peeled, cored and chopped

Topping:
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preheat oven to 200C / 400F.
Sift flour then add baking powder, salt, sugar, and cinnamon and mix through. Beat egg well then add oil, milk and apple and stir well.
Add wet mixture to dry ingredients and combine quickly. Take care not to overmix or the muffin will be dry. Ladle spoonfuls into greased or lined muffin tins, about 3/4 full.

Combine topping ingredients in a bowl then top mufins with a spoonful of mixture.

Bake for about 20-30 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
