This is a favorite recipe of mine, straight from the apple orchard. You can serve these with fresh apple jam or butter for a mouthwatering breakfast.
FOOD FACT: Yellow Delicious apples are always best for baking this recipe because they provide moisture and make the muffins extra gooey after a day or two. Other varieties tend to hold their shape and texture better, making the final product much crunchier and less moist.
Ingredients
- 1½ cups flour
- 3 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon teaspoon
- ½ cup sugar
- ¼ cup shortening or oleo
- 1 piece egg
- ½ cup milk
- 1 cup finely chopped apples
Instructions
Grease a muffin pan. To make the topping, sift the first four ingredients together in a bowl and set aside. Cream the sugar and shortening in a separate bowl; add the egg and beat. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients alternately with the milk. Fold in the apples. Fill greased muffin cups (or use cupcake liners) two-thirds full and sprinkle with topping. Bake at 400°F for 20 minutes.
