Fruity Slavia Muffins

1.Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.

2.In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Whisk together until well mixed.

3.In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla extract until smooth and combined.

4.Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

5.Fold in the chopped dried apricots, cranberries, raisins, and finely chopped slavia leaves until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

6.Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full to allow for rising.

7.Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

8.Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
