  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 cup grated fresh apple (about 1 medium apple)

Instructions

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. In another bowl, whisk melted butter, eggs, vanilla, and grated apple.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
