Thanks to pic a chef I picked this recipe to try.<br/><br/>There are no words to say but YUMM!<br/><br/>Our batch of muffins did not last long at all.<br/><br/>Great muffins to make. -
Fantastic muffins!!! I really love these. The apple/cinnamon middle is sooooooooooo good. My son gobbled down several right away. I will definitely be making these again. What a treat! -
What a very tasty muffin. The whole house smelled so good while these were baking. I love them. I will be making these again. -
Yummy!!!! Wow these r awsome!!! I just made them pulled them out of the oven and had to have one they smelled so good! I had 3 small apples I wanted to use up and decided to try this I will most def be making this again! The only things I did different is I didnt have jumbo muffin tins so I used regular and it made 18. I lowerd the cooking time due to that. Also I kinda got ahead of myself and threw all the ingredients together (other than the apple filling & cinnamon topping) and mixed it together with a hand mixer. Thanks so much for posting this I can't wait for my kids to get home I will b lucky if any r left for breakfast tomorrow especilly once hubby gets ahold of one!!!

I am blessed with a wonderful dh and four fantastic, crazy children. I am a stay at home mom who works from son up till son down.
My favorite cookbook is not one that I cook with very often, it actually sits on top of my pantry propped up in an old basket. The cookbook was given to my grandmother just prior to her marriage to my grandfather and it has the family prayer and some recipes that my great-grandmother penned in her own hand inside. It is called All About Home Baking.
