Since this recipe was submitted in 2002, it's received tons of good feedback. I tried them myself this morning and I concur... this a great basic apple muffin with lots of apple and cinnamon flavor. Please note that the recipe is intended to make 12 jumbo muffins. I halved the recipe to get 12 regular (albeit square) muffins. I also dipped the cooked and cooled muffins in a thin glaze made from 3/4 cup powdered sugar and 2 Tablespoons warm water. (This recipe was tested and photographed in May 2014.)

How To Make Apple Muffins
Peel and core the apples. Slice each one into 1/2-inch pieces. This should yield about 2 cups of sliced apple. Set aside.
With rubber spatula, cream butter and sugars by hand until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat until fluffy. Blend in buttermilk.
Add flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Mix until all lumps have dissolved; do not over-mix. Add apples. (Batter will be thicker than typical muffin batter.)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Coat muffin cups measuring 3 inches across top and 2 inches across bottom (jumbo size) with non-stick vegetable cooking spray. Spoon batter into muffin cups, filling to top. Top each muffin with brown sugar.
Bake in preheated oven 20 to 25 minutes, or until done.
