Apple Streusel Muffins

by LeaDawn on May 27, 2011

These turned out stickier than I thought, but they taste great.

Ingredients:

2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1/2 cup butter, melted
1-1/4 teaspoons vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups chopped peeled tart apples
(I used some apple pie filling I had opened)

Streusel Topping:
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon cold butter

Directions:

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, mix eggs, butter and vanilla.  Mix wet & dry ingredients to make a batter (it will be stiff).  Fold in apples.

Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups three-fourths full. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour and cinnamon; cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over batter.

Bake at 375° for 15-20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack to cool completely.  Makes about 1 dozen.

This is the first time I have tried this recipe.  I will let you know how it freezes.

Can you used dried Apple pieces from food storage?

I think that dried apples would work great, but I have not tried that. I would just soak the dried apples in warm water for a few minutes until they are soft. Then use them like regular apples. Let me know how it turns out!
