Pieces of tender apples appear in every bite of these pretty muffins. The streusel topping is nicely seasoned with cinnamon and sugar.

Awesome muffins. I am a chocoholic and typically do not care for fruit desserts, but these could almost make me give up chocolate.

I made this into a 9x9 coffee cake. Baked at 400 for about 40 minutes. Used brown sugar in the topping rather than white sugar and drizzled icing over the top once it had cooled. Delicious!

My family loves these muffins. I add a little ground nutmeg and use brown sugar instead of white. I usually make 18 smaller muffins too. If you can get them cool before they are gone, they freeze well too. I usually leave the peel on my apples, but that is personal preference. Don't skimp on the apples -- a little more is much preferable to not enough.
