Easy Cinnamon Apple Streusel Muffins

Yield: 12 muffins
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

These delicious Cinnamon Apple Crumb Streusel Muffins have a moist cinnamon apple center with a sweet, crumb-y cinnamon streusel topping, and are ready in 30 minutes or less.

Ingredients

Crumb Streusel Topping

  • 1/4 cup cold butter, cubed
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup oats
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • dash salt

Cinnamon Apples

  • 1 cup apples, small dice
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Main Muffin Batter

  • 2 cups pancake mix
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 2 eggs

Instructions

Crumb Streusel Topping

  1. In a bowl, mix all crumb streusel topping ingredients together with a fork or pastry cutter.  Mix until butter pieces are pea-sized. Set aside until ready to use.

Cinnamon Apples

  1. In another bowl, toss cinnamon apple ingredients together.  Set aside until muffin batter is made.

Muffins

  1. Blend main muffin batter ingredients together only until combined.  It should be lumpy.
  2. Fold in cinnamon apple mixture only until blended.  Do not over mix.
  3. Fill each muffin cup (I line my tin with paper muffin cups) to about 2/3 full.  I like to use a D20 size scoop.
  4. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of the streusel topping mixture on each muffin.
  5. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick poked into the center comes out clean.
  6. Eat plain or with butter and cinnamon sugar.

      I haven’t tried it with a gluten-free pancake mix. If your mix has a 1 to 1 gluten-free to regular pancake mix I would think it would be just fine. Let me know how it goes if you try it. Thanks for stopping by.

    The secret ingredient to a SUPER soft muffin that is still healthy, is Kodiak Cakes Pancake Mix. Your muffins will bake up ultra light and soft, instead of a typical denser muffin you usually get when using healthier ingredients.

      These are AWESOME! I followed the recipe as written with the exception of adding
      1/4 tsp each of ginger and clove to the apple mixture. I will definitely be baking
      these again, was a major hit in this house. Thanks for sharing!

      Hi Rachel! I love your name… 😉 To answer your question, I don’t think it will matter much which kind of pancake mix you use. I’ve made it with a Bisquick (just add water) mix and a pancake mix that required me to add oil, eggs, and milk to make pancakes. Both mixes have turned out about the same when used in this muffin recipe. I hope that helps and I hope you love this recipe as much as we do. Thanks for stopping by.
