    • Author: Tawra Kellam
    • Yield: 12-15 muffins

    Ingredients

    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 tsp. cinnamon
    1 tsp. baking powder
    1/2 tsp. baking soda
    1/4 tsp. salt
    1/2 cup raisins and/or nuts (optional)
    1 cup apple juice
    1/2 cup applesauce

    Topping Ingredients

    2 Tbsp. butter, oil or margarine, melted
    3 Tbsp. sugar
    1/4 tsp. cinnamon
    1/4 tsp. nutmeg

    Instructions

    1. Preheat oven to 350°.
    2. In a bowl, mix together the first 5 ingredients.
    3. Add raisins and/or nuts, if desired. Stir to mix.
    4. Add apple juice, applesauce and oil. Mix well.
    5. Spoon into lightly greased muffin tins.
    6. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
    7. To make the topping, place the melted butter in a bowl.
    8. Then mix the cinnamon, sugar and nutmeg in a nother bowl.
    9. While the muffins are still warm, dip each muffin into the melted butter and then the cinnamon and sugar mixture. If you like, you can also spoon the cinnamon and sugar mixture over the muffins.

    Notes

    • I like to line my muffin pan with muffin liners to make it easier to clean up.
    • I usually make my muffins “rustic”, where I just pour the batter in and bake, but if you’re trying to make them extra pretty, you can smooth out the tops before baking. My boys snarf them down so quickly, I hate to spend too much time being OCD!

    This apple cinnamon muffins recipe is in volume 1 of our cookbook, where it is called Apple Cinnamon Muffin Mix.
