Apple and Cinnamon Muffins

It's 'Using up all the fruit in the bowl Day' so I have made a couple of batches of muffins today, until the eggs ran out - how I miss my hens, and having fresh eggs every day.
To make these:

First peel 3 or 4 apples and peel and dice them into small chunks. Cook in a saucepan with a little water and a lot of sugar, stir them, until they pulp up like apple sauce. Set aside to cool a little.

In a large bowl mix together:
375g self raising flour
200g demerara sugar
20g castor sugar
1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon

In a small bowl mix together:
90g melted butter
half a cup of sour cream
quarter cup of milk
2 large eggs

Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ones  
Then add one cup of apple pulp - any extra stick on a pork chop for your lunch tomorrow! 

Divide into 12 muffin cases
Bake Gas 5/6
20-25 mins

leave in the tin for a couple of minutes before removing to
Cool on a wire rack
store in an airtight container
