"These Muffins are my salute to Fall this year. They are full of my favorite Fall flavors-apples, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. I love that the apples are mixed into the batter and are also baked into the top of the muffins. YUM! As if that was not delicious enough, I topped the muffins with a sweet Apple Pie Spice Drizzle. YUM, YUM!!"
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon apple pie spice*
1 (20 ounce) can apple pie filling, divided
1/3 cup butter, softened
2 Tablespoons milk
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare muffin tins by spraying with non-stick cooking spray or lining with baking or cupcake liners. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and apple pie spice. Spoon 1 cup of the apple pie filling onto a cutting board and chop into a medium-sized dice. Add to dry ingredients along with the butter, milk, eggs and vanilla. Beat mixture with an electric mixer until completely combined. Using a medium-sized scoop, spoon batter into muffin tins; filling each 2/3 full. (Batter will make approximately 18 muffins.) Chop remaining apple pie filling into a medium-sized dice and spoon about 1/2 Tablespoon onto the top of each muffin. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Cool slightly and drizzle with Apple Pie Spice Drizzle (recipe follows).
Apple Pie Spice Drizzle
1 cup powdered sugar
2 Tablespoons milk
