Apple Streusel Muffins

Cook Time: 20-25 min
Preheat Oven: 400

Ingredients:
2 apples, peeled, cored, and diced
2 cups flour
2/3 cup white sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 large eggs
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 tsp cinnamon

(Streusel Topping)
1/2 cup flour
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/3 cup brown sugar
Cinnamon for sprinkling

Instructions:
Line a muffin tin with cupcake wrappers.In a large bowl, mix together wet and dry ingredients for the muffins until well combined. Gently stir in chopped apple. Scoop about 1/4 cup batter into each cupcake liner — the cups should be 2/3 full. Set aside. In a medium bowl, mix together ingredients for streusel topping. ** The original recipe called for 1/4 cup flour to be used for the streusel, but I found that the mixture was way too runny with just that amount. I kept adding more flour a little at a time until the topping became crumbly and was recognizable as streusel. 1/2 cup is my best guess at the total amount used.

Spoon streusel topping on top of the batter in each muffin cup. Use as much as you want — I sprinkled enough to cover the entire top. Sprinkle a little cinnamon on top of the streusel.  Enjoy warm with a glass of milk.
