(this is a copy of my ‘comment,’ but I wanted to get a rating in on this yummy recipe!)
These were great! I used 1 cup of white sugar along with 1/2 cup of brown sugar, because I ran out of brown sugar…oops. I also made my buttermilk from one cup milk and 1 tablespoon vinegar. They are delicious!
This is probably a great base recipe for other fruit, such as pears, peaches, berries, etc. My kids are devouring them as I type. I can’t wait to make these muffins again.

This was an excellent recipe. If it weren’t for the apples it would have been too dry, but with them was fine. I had trouble with the crumb topping not staying on the cupcakes and making a mess. I’d suggest pushing a smaller amount of topping into the tops of the batter. I added a basic glaze of milk, cinnamon, and powdered sugar to the tops and that made it sticky, but the best! My friends want the recipe now. Thanks!

I made these last night and brought them to the office for a co-workers birthday. She loved them. I love them. Like MeredithCanCook, I also made my buttermilk from regular milk (fat free!) and vinegar. I would like to add that 2 cups of apples are about 2.5 medium apples, maybe 3 small ones? I think this recipe would do well with being converted to whole grain with whole spelt flour or even whole wheat. I will have to try that next time. Thanks for a great recipe!

I just made these this morning and they are so tasty! Definitely not a “health food” muffin, but a wonderful way to use the big bag of apples I just got from a friend!
I did standard size muffins as well as mini muffins to pack for my daughter’s lunches.
I had no problem with the crumble sticking, but did find that I had a LOT of it. Next time around I will make less crumb topping a the muffins are already sweet enough.

Just made these today and the recipe was just what I was looking for – something I already had ingredients on hand for. I followed some of the tips in the comments and added 1 tsp cinnamon and 1/2 tsp nutmeg to the batter. I also made buttermilk with 1% milk and vinegar, and subbed applesauce for the oil. I, too, had plenty of leftover crumble mixture. By the way, a tip for that – instead of making as directed and adding flour if needed, mix all the dry ingredients and then add the melted butter a bit at a time. I got a perfectly textured topping that way, although found the flavor to be a bit floury. I used honeycrisp apples for this and only needed 1 1/2 apples to make 2 cups. Hubby says he expected something a bit “juicier” judging by the name, but the flavor is pretty good and they make the house smell amazing as they’re cooking. Thanks!

These are seriously the best muffins I have ever made! They were soooo good and I didn’t even make the topping for them. I can’t even imagine how great they’ll be when I make them again and add the topping Thanks for the recipe!

Honey – these are divine! Loved them!! The only change I made was to add a teaspoon and a half of apple pie spice. Thanks again for sharing another wonderful recipe.

I had a friend show up with a HUGE bag of apples and I had no idea what to do with them all. It was my turn to bring snack to my sons preschool, so I looked up an easy recipe, that would be good for a morning snack, that kids would love and involved apples. I decided on these Apple Pie Muffins and I’m SO glad I did! I had five muffins left over, so I left them at home, for my family to enjoy them. My husband CANNOT stop eating them. They are DELICIOUS! Now I know what to do with the rest of the bag of apples!! Super easy to make and so, so incredibly good!!

I got this comment on my blog about these muffins: I had to stop over and tell you I just tried your Apple Pie Muffins from the Tasty Kitchen. They were (I say were because they’re all gone!) a HUGE hit in my house! My husband could not stop raving about them (and that’s so not him!) Great recipe! Thanks for sharing!

OMG! These were delish! My husband keeps asking me for more. Thanks

3 out of 4 of the family LOVED these. The fourth didn’t like the pieces of apple.
When I make them again, I’m going to add some cinnamon and nutmeg to the batter – more apple pie-like.
Thanks for sharing!

I made these yesterday for my daughter’s Kindergarten apple tasting party today. They were so fantastic!!!! So moist and full of flavor. Thanks for sharing!

These are by far the best apple muffins! I’ve made them for friends, family and morning staff meetings, they are a hit with everyone! I used half whole wheat flour (I add it to all my baking-love the texture and flavor). Oh, I’ve ran out of oil, & used sour cream to make up the diff. whoa…so very good! Thanks for sharing your recipe!
