APPLE PIE MUFFINS

Apple pie muffins are just the thing to serve family and friends for breakfast with coffee or with milk as a snack anytime.

Apple pie muffins are delicious and make a wonderful breakfast on the go.  Children and adults love these because they taste like apple pie but in a muffin!

Apple pie muffins will quickly become a favorite.

1 (21 ounce) can apple pie filling (I use Duncan Hines Original Country Apple Pie Filling)

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup white granulated sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups buttermilk

3 tablespoons butter, melted

2 eggs

1 cup nut pieces, Optional

In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon.  Add the vanilla extract, buttermilk, melted butter and eggs.  Mix well with a spoon.  Spray a 12 cup muffin tin, add about 1/4 cup batter to each cup.  Drop about 1 tablespoon of the apple pie filling into the batter.  Sprinkle nuts on top.  Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven 25 to 30 minutes until brown on top.  Makes 18 muffins. Enjoy!

Note:  You can make these with about any kind of pie filling.  They keep well and easily reheat in the microwave. I refrigerate any leftover.  We love the filling “oozing” out of the muffins. You could add raisins along with the nuts and you could sprinkle a little brown sugar and cinnamon on top before baking.
