While we don’t make muffins too often, every time we do we end up kicking ourselves, wondering why on earth we don’t make them more frequently – they’re so good! One of our very favorite muffin recipes is one we got from our Grandma, a sticky apple crumb muffin that that takes things above and beyond. Juicy bites of apple peppered throughout, hits of cinnamon and nutmeg that make us feel like we’re really taking advantage of the best fall flavors, plus a truly impressive muffin top.

Some people will say to only fill your muffin mold two thirds of the way up…but not Grandma. She was a proponent of filling that tin up almost to the top, so that you get a massive muffin top that’s covered in a rich brown sugar crumb topping. Yummm. While you can tweak the spices in your muffins to cater to your preference, we love a good heaping pile of cinnamon in there to really complement the apples and give a round depth of flavor to the muffins themselves. You guys, make these this weekend and see if you don’t just want to make them every following weekend as well.
