Apple Cinnamon Muffins
Here’s a tasty muffin full of fall flavors. I bought my first bag of apples the other day and made these muffins this morning. I have always liked this recipe, the muffins are full of cinnamon and the apples makes the muffins very moist.
This is a muffin that will still be good the next day if kept covered. I used Granny Smith apples but any cooking apple will work. Courtlands, Johnagolds, Fujis, Granny Smiths or McIntosh are a few apples that come to mind real quick when I think about the kinds of apples I like to bake with.
