  3. Stir in the grated sharp cheddar cheese evenly throughout the dry mixture.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and melted butter until smooth.
  5. Gently fold in the chopped apples, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  6. Create a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the apple mixture, stirring until just combined.
  7. Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake for approximately 30 minutes until tops are golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
