Instructions
- Make the cinnamon apples first. In a skillet, melt the butter. Then add the diced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Sauté the apples until they are soft (about 5-8 minutes). Transfer the apples to a separate bowl to cool, while you prep the muffin batter.
- In a medium bowl, add flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk the dry mixture until all the ingredients are incorporated.
- In a large bowl, mix eggs, sugar, butter, milk, vanilla, and sour cream together.
- Mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Then gently fold in the cinnamon apples.
- To make the streusel, combine butter, flour, sugar, brown sugar, and salt.
- Using an ice cream scoop or 1/4 measuring cup, scoop batter into a prepared muffin tin (you can grease the pan or add liners). Add streusel to the top of each muffin.
- Bake at 350ºF for 20-25 minutes. Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes.
