CINNAMON STREUSEL APPLE CIDER MUFFINS



Cinnamon Streusel Apple Cider Muffins image

The streusel topping is what turns this from a good apple muffin recipe to a great apple muffin. The muffin itself is moist with a very mild flavor from the apples. But that streusel... oh my. Full of cinnamon, it bakes to a nice sugary crunch and really complements the apple flavors in the muffin. Just delicious!

Tips:

  • Use fresh apples: Fresh apples provide the best flavor and texture for the streusel muffins. If you don't have fresh apples on hand, you can use frozen or canned apples, but be sure to drain them well before adding them to the batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough muffins. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Use a muffin scoop to fill the muffin cups: This will help ensure that the muffins are evenly sized and baked.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely: This will help prevent the muffins from sticking to the pan.

Conclusion:

Apple cider streusel muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. They are perfect for fall gatherings and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their moist texture, sweet apple flavor, and crunchy streusel topping, these muffins are sure to be a hit.
