Apple Crisp Muffins Posted on November 18, 2012 (February 1, 2021) by Lynna You guys should know I love baked goods with apples. When I saw the recipe for these apple crisp muffins in one of my favorite magazines, I immediately added them to my to-bake list. Unfortunately, they took me awhile to bake. I had this magazine for over a year now. LOL. I`m sure you understand how it is! There are so many recipes out there what appeals to you that they distracts you from the ones before. Also, I never seemed to have apples and cream cheese at the same time in my fridge. I never made apple muffins before and the topping for these muffins is made with cream cheese! I was definitely excited to make these. After the muffins came out of the oven, the smell was wonderful! When I took my first bite though, I was confused as to why these were called apple CRISP muffins. Sure, there was the crisp topping, but because you drop cream cheese filling on top, it`s more like a soft topping. The cream cheese filling sinks into the muffins, making it look pretty cool. However, next time around I will leave out the cream cheese filling. The apple muffin part was good, but I believe the filling was kind of unnecessary. Don`t get my wrong, they were good–but, they could have been better. Oh, I also suggest drizzling some caramel ice cream topping on top. Makes for a wonderful muffin! 🙂 Apple Crisp Muffins From: Taste of Home Yields: 12 muffins Level: Easy Total Time: ~ 1 hour 30 minutes Materials Needed: – 1 muffin pan – 1 large bowl – 3 whisks – 1 medium bowl – 1 small bowl – pastry butter cooling Recipe can be found at the Taste of Home website.

I was wondering why the muffins looked sunken. These sound fantastic! I also love baking with apples, and I have way too many to handle in my house. I MUST make these! Reply
apple + cream cheese is just my thing! would've been perfect if there was butter.. somewhere ^^ your sunken cream cheese apple muffins look really enticing! Reply
I hope you had a nice Thanksgivinig, Lynna! Wow, these muffins look so good! My son is a big apple fan in my family and I especially love apples when it's in baked goods. It's worth waiting for a year! 🙂 Reply
These look delicious! I'd leave off the cream cheese – not a huge fan – but besides that, they look so yummy. Can't wait to try! Reply
Yeah, I would prefer to leave out the cream cheese next time. I felt the cream cheese detracted from the apple muffins. Reply
