Ingredients
  

For the Muffins

  • 2 large granny smith apples, finely diced
  • 3 Tablespoons butter
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 2 Tablespoons water
  • 2⅔ cups flour, divided
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup applesauce
  • ⅔ cup sugar
  • ⅔ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 3 teaspoons cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk

For the Glaze

  • 1-2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2-3 Tablespoons milk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400℉. If making regular sized muffins, line 18 muffin cups with liners. If making mini muffins, line 48 muffins cups with liners (or spray with nonstick cooking spray).
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, add the apples, butter, sugar, cinnamon, and water and cook until tender (this will take 7-10 minutes). Add 1/3 cup flour and mix until all the apples are coated.
  • In another bowl, mix together your dry ingredients (remaining flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt).
  • In a separate bowl, mix the applesauce, sugar and brown sugar until smooth and creamy. Add in eggs, mixing after each egg is added, and then stir in vanilla.
  • Carefully stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, alternating pouring in the milk, until they are both completely added. Slowly fold in the apples.
  • Fill each muffin cup about ⅔ full and bake (regular muffins – 15-17 minutes; mini muffins – 10-12 minutes). Let muffins cool in their tin for 5 minutes, then remove onto wire rack and let cool.
  • While muffins cool, mix together glaze ingredients in a bowl. Dip each muffin top into the glaze and let glaze run down the sides of the muffin.
