Apple cinnamon muffins sound like fall to me. It seems like summer just started, but that’s not reality. A lot of kids go back to school this week, and fall is creeping up. Part of me looks forward to all the apple and pumpkin treats that come along with fall. Hot chocolate, hoodies, boots, and fires in the fireplace – okay, I am totally ready.

Yum. If you like apples and cinnamon, give these muffins a try. They are great to make for company, or just for a snack for your household. I know my grandparents have a tree that produces hundreds of apples all at once. We are always looking for recipes to use up all the apples before they go bad. This muffin recipe will be high on that list.

    Could someone tell me where on these recipe posts there is a way to get a printable version? Paper may be low tech but a printed recipe in the kitchen is easier – and cleaner – to use than a laptop with the blog post on the screen. Says me who is tired of cleaning sugar, flour and egg off my keyboard!

    1. I am the same way! You can install this to make anything printer friendly — http:// www. printfriendly.com/browser_tool
      Or, in my share buttons, there’s an option to click on, as well. Hope that helps!
