How you make the…
CRUMB
TOPPING:
In
a medium bowl, combine the white and brown sugars, the cinnamon, and the melted
butter. Using a rubber spatula, stir in the flour. The crumb topping will be
thick and crumbly. Set aside.
Now,
preheat oven to 425F degrees. Spray or line a muffin tin with nonstick
spray.
MUFFINS:
Make
the muffins: In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the
butter on high speed until smooth and creamy. Next, add in the brown and white sugars
and beat on high until creamed. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as
needed.
Add the eggs, yogurt, and vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed for 1 minute, then turn up to high speed until the mixture is combined and uniform in texture. Don’t forget to scape down the sides!
In
a bowl, mix together the remaining ingredients. Then pour the dry ingredients
into the wet ingredients and slowly mix. Add the milk, whisking until combined
and little lumps remain. Lastly, fold in the apples with a wooden spoon or
rubber spatula.
Spoon
the muffin batter evenly between all of the muffin tins, making sure to fill
the muffin tins until they are full. Go all the way up to the top!
GLAZE:
Mix
all of the ingredients together.
ASSEMBLY:
Now, crumble the topping with your hands to make some big chunks, and press it into the top of the muffins.
Bake
for 5 minutes at 425F degrees, then lower the oven temperature to 350F degrees
and bake for an extra 15-17 minutes. You want them to be nice and golden brown.
When done, drizzle the glaze over warm muffins and enjoy! Nom nom nom!
