I love apples and cinnamon. They also go well together.

It is not autumn but the leaves do not need to be turning colors to enjoy food typically associated with colder seasons!

I do need to work on taking pictures of food. So I must apologize for the lighting.

Muffin ingredients:

1/2 cup unsalted butter
3/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cups milk
1 large apple, pealed & chopped about 1 and a half cups chopped
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon to coat the apples

Baking instructions:

Preheat the oven to 375F degrees and line a muffin pan with papers.
In a large bowl beat the butter, white sugar & brown sugar until fluffy.
Mix in the eggs 1 at a time, then the vanilla.
In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda & salt.
With the mixer on low speed beat about 1/3 of the flour mixture into the butter mixture, alternating with about 1/3 of the milk. Repeat the process until everything is combined.
In a separate bowl toss the chopped apple with the 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon.
Gently fold the chopped apple into the muffin batter using a large rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan - you'll get about 12 muffins total.
In a small bowl stir the sugar and cinnamon for the cinnamon sugar topping together. Then sprinkle it on top of each muffin.

Bake in the preheated oven for 17-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

(I baked these for breakfast but they also work well as a snack.)
