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 apple cider muffins. If you can, use a variety of apples, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
  • Make sure your apple cider is fresh: Flat or spoiled apple cider will not produce flavorful muffins. If you don't have fresh apple cider, you can make your own by simmering apple juice with cinnamon sticks, cloves, and nutmeg.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the muffins until they are golden brown: A toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin should come out clean when the muffins are done.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the muffins to set.

Cinnamon streusel apple cider muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make fall treat. With their moist, tender crumb, sweet apple flavor, and crunchy streusel topping, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
