1. Recipe

The recipe makes 12 muffins, and they stay good in a sealed container for several days on the counter. These muffins also freeze amazingly. Cooked muffins can be frozen in a freezer bag for several months. When you're ready to eat them, either pop them into the microwave about 20-30 seconds, or thaw on the counter for 1-2 hours.

Made from basic pantry ingredients and fridge staples, you probably have most, if not all, the things you need to make these in your house right now. I usually use Gala apples but the recipe works with whatever apple you prefer! The method to make these muffins is really simple. first, you whisk together all the dry ingredients, then you whisk together the wet ingredients, pour the wet onto the dry and stir. Once your batter has formed, throw in the apples, bake, glaze, then devour! Speaking of glaze - it is a maple cinnamon icing that hardens into a delicious coating on to top of the muffin - you don't want to skip it! It lends the perfect sweetness that really kicks these muffins up to the next level. I drizzled mine on top, but you can also spread it on with the back of a spoon to get a more even layer.

It's official - I can't wait any longer to start my fall baking! Although I love summer weather the best, nothing compares to fall flavors - especially cinnamon. Bursting with chunks of apple and a perfect balance of sweet and spiced, these muffins are some of the best you'll ever have. My husband rated them a solid 11/10 - they're that good. Now that apple season is around the corner, you really have no choice but to add these to your baking list.
