Apple Cinnamon Streusel Muffins


My swim coach, knowing I love to bake, gave me some apples she had left over from apple picking so I could find something yummy to bring to practice.

These muffins are unbelievable.
If you've ever dreamed of eating apple pie for breakfast, look no further.
These are like an apple pie.  Except they're called a muffin to make you feel better.

Place muffin cups into tin and fill to the top.



For topping, combine sugar, flour, and cinnamon.  

Cut in butter until it resembled course crumbs.  Add a generous amount on top of each muffin.
