RECIPE
The Best Apple Crumble Muffins
This apple crumb muffin is the best muffin I have ever had made. It is amazing, I really mean it!! I could eat everyone of them!! Everyone that has tried these muffins, said this muffin is amazing!!! It is a soft muffin, that is moist and full of flavor!!! The kids love these muffins too. They make a great snack for school and perfect for an after school tea party with Isabella.
These muffins have a few steps, but don’t let that scare you away. Just follow the directions and you will be golden!! It is important to make sure the eggs and buttermilk are room temperature, this is important in helping the muffins rise. I brown the butter because it really makes everything better. (yes I use a lot of brown butter) These muffins are a big muffin. The batter will be filled almost to the top and when you add the crumb topping it will be to the top. I start by baking the muffins at 425 for minutes, this really helps the muffin rise. Then I lower the temperature to 350 for the rest of the bake time. Don’t forget to lower the temperature, if you don’t the muffins will burn.
I can’t wait to hear how much you love these muffins!! They are my very favorite and I love them. I just know you will love them too,

Tips & Recommendations
To make buttermilk mix together 2 tsp of vinegar with milk. Apples can be peeled or not peeled. The muffins are big so they will overflow a little bit when baked.
