  2. To make the Muffins
  3. Sift the flour and nutmeg into a large bowl. In a separate bowl whisk together the sugar, oil and eggs. Make a well in the dry ingredients and whisk in the egg mixture until you have a smooth batter. Fold in the raspberries. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling each cup three-quarters full. Slice the apple quarters and fan out on top of the batter.
