INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup butter
1 1/4 cups white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup milk
2 cups peeled, cored and sliced apples
1/2 cup walnuts
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter, cubed
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat top and insides of
jumbo muffin pan with cooking spray, or line with muffin papers.
In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup butter, 1 1/4 cups sugar,
vanilla, and salt until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at time. Mix
together the 1 3/4 cups of flour, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon
cinnamon. Stir in the flour mixture alternately with the milk, mixing
just until incorporated. Fold in apples and walnuts. Scoop into muffin
cups to fill 3/4 full. Lightly sprinkle the tops with cinnamon crumble.
To make Cinnamon Crumble: In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup white sugar,
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, and 2
tablespoons cubed butter. Mix together using a pastry blender, or two
butter knives. The crumble topping should resemble small peas.
Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until tops are golden brown,
and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If they are
browning too quickly, cover with tin foil. Remove from pans, and cool on
wire rack.
