APPLE STREUSEL MUFFINS

18 Regular muffins

The delicious crumb topping makes these muffins taste like miniature coffee 
cakes. Good at tea time and also for brunch. Cool at least 1 hour before 
serving.

1/2 cup chopped walnuts 
1/4 cup all-purpose flour 
3 tablespoons granulated sugar 
2 tablespoons butter, at room temperature 
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Batter

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder 
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking soda 
1/4 teaspoon salt 
2 large eggs 
1 cup sour cream 
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted 
1 cup diced unpeeled apple, preferably a tart apple such as Granny Smith or 
Greenings

Heat oven to 375 F. Grease muffin cups or use foil baking cups.

Put streusel topping ingredients into a medium-size bowl. Mix with a fork, 
then crumble with fingers until mixture looks like chopped walnuts.

To make the muffin batter, thoroughly mix flour, sugar, baking powder, 
cinnamon, allspice, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.

Break eggs into another bowl. Add sour cream and melted butter, and whisk 
until well blended. Stir in diced apple.

Pour egg mixture over flour mixture and fold in just until dry ingredients are 
moistened.

Scoop batter into muffin cups. Top each muffin with about 2 teaspoons of the 
streusel topping.

Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until browned. A toothpick inserted into the center
