Get In The Fall Mood with the Delicious Aroma of Apples and Spice...
Fall is here, and we can all agree that there's nothing like fresh apple muffins to get us in the mood for the season. The delicious aroma of apple pie spice wafting through the house, combined with a buttery crumbly topping, makes these muffins the ultimate cozy breakfast food.
The cinnamon and nutmeg give the muffins their warm and spicy aroma while the chopped apples add a delicious juicy sweetness to the mix.
These muffins are also great for advance meal prep. You can make a big batch and freeze them for a quick grab-and-go breakfast during the week.
If you're looking to go all in with an apple fall muffin menu, try these tips for variations, storage and simple cooking tips for muffins...
Apple Spice Muffin Variations
If you want to make your muffins even more flavorful, you can add some of your favorite ingredients to the batter. For example...
Chopped walnuts, raisins, or dried cranberries all pair well with the apple spice flavor.
Substitute the apples with other types of fruits such as peaches or pears to continue a seasonal theme as the seasons change.
Try adding a splash of vanilla extract or pumpkin puree or folding in candied ginger to your batter if you want to experiment with more complex fall flavors.
Experiment with brown sugar, ground cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice cake mix to achieve pumpkin-spiced apple muffins or pumpkin cinnamon apple muffins.
Honey Crisp, Granny Smith, Fuji apples and apple sauce are all great for muffin baking and provide a variety of apple flavors.
And yes!... Mini muffins to jumbo-size muffins. Choose your favorite muffin pan and start baking!
Storing Muffins
Apple spice muffins are best served warm right out of the oven, but they can also be stored for a few days. Simply allow the muffins to cool completely and then store them in an airtight container at room temperature.
You can warm them up in the microwave for a few seconds or in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes.
Simple Cooking Tips for Muffins
To make sure your muffins turn out perfectly and absolutely delicious every time, here are a few tips to keep in mind…
Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature.
Don't overmix the batter. It's okay to have a few lumps.
Use ripe apples that are still firm.
Don't overfill the muffin cups, as they may overflow.
