  • 1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 Teaspoons Cinnamon
  • ½ Teaspoon Salt

Crumb Topping

  • ½ Cup Brown Sugar packed
  • 1 Teaspoon Cinnamon
  • Cup Flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and prep a muffin pan. Either spray muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray or use liners to line the cups with.

Muffin Batter

  1. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.

  2. Beat together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth in a large mixing bowl or bowl of stand mixer that is fitted with the paddle attachment.

  3. Add in eggs one at a time, fully incorporating each egg before adding the next.

  4. Add in the yogurt and vanilla extract until creamy.

  5. Slowly alternate adding the flour mixture and the milk until both are fully incorporated.

  6. Gently fold the apples into the muffin batter.

  7. Using a large cookie scoop fill the muffin tin cups with the muffin batter. Or fill cups to ¾ of the way full.

Crumb Topping

  1. Using a fork mix together the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon.

  2. Using a fork or a pastry cutter cut in the cubed butter into the sugar mixture.

  3. Spoon the crumb topping onto the muffin batter.

  4. Place on a rack that is in the middle of an oven that has been preheated to 400℉. Bake for 20-23 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center of a muffin.

  5. Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to remain in the muffin tin for 5 minutes.
