Apple cinnamon muffins

I swear this is the last muffin recipe for a while but I’ve had a little of a sweet tooth lately. That being said these muffins are hard to stop eating. If you plan on sharing two batches might be a sound plan. Remember you have been warned, but no seriously dig in to these anytime favorites.

INGREDIENTS

Makes 12

Muffins

2 teaspoons cinnamon

2 cups all purpose flour   (keep a little extra on the side to dust the apple slices with)

1 and a 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1 cup of sugar

half a teaspoon of salt

2 cups of apples small dice

half a cup of milk

2 teaspoons of vanilla extract

2 eggs

half a cup soft unsalted butter

Cinnamon sugar topping mix

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup cinnamon

1/4 cup melted unsalted butter


Directions

Dice your apples and dust them with flour

Preheat  your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit

Place your cups into your muffin tin

Mix together the salt, baking powder, flour, and cinnamon in a medium bowl and save for later

Mix together the softened butter, vanilla, and sugar until it thickens

Add the eggs one at a time mixing well before adding the second

Add the liquid slowly to the flour mixture and stir until just combined

Add the dusted apples and mix to incorporate

Scoop the mixture into the muffin cups

Bake until done (around 30 minutes)

Prepare cinnamon sugar mix by melting remaining butter and placing in a shallow bowl and allow to cool slightly

Place cinnamon and sugar in a separate bowl

When muffins are done allow to cool slightly

Dip muffin top in butter then roll in cinnamon and sugar mix and let finish cooling

And done eat up!
