My teenage daughter took one bite and said, "Mmmmm.....that is SO good!" This recipe is fabulous! I added a little shake of allspice and cloves (to add more "fall" flavors) and I did only 2 Tbs of butter for the top. I baked them in my stone muffin pan and they didn't stick at all. Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe - it is my favorite muffin recipe now!

There is too much liquid in this recipe. My

muffins never baked, remained liquid and spilled all over my oven. Same for the topping. What a waste of time and effort.

followed directions but used the Caramel Bits from the baking aisle at the market. Sprayed 12 muffin cups generously and made 12 jumbo muffins...the best ever! Will make these again and again!

I thought these muffins were great. I chopped my apples into larger pieces, and I used the caramel bits that Kraft makes. The caramel is not like the picture, rather baked into the muffin instead of gooping out. I still enjoyed them and so did my family so I will make them again.

I make this as a cake and use a praline topping as a preference.

These muffins are delicious. I did cut back to 2 tbsp of butter for topping and used 1 cup of wheat flour along w/the white. Skim milk instead of 2%. Cut the carmels into 4th's w/scissors & was very easy. These muffins are all that!!!!!! :)

Kraft now has caramel 'bits'. They work great and are a bit smaller than a chocolate chip.
