Whether you can't get enough of the very best part of the muffin or you're craving a fall-inspired flavor combo, this recipe is for you. Apples and cinnamon are a match made in muffin-top heaven in this simple recipe. Just combine diced fresh apple with Betty Crocker™ Cinnamon Muffin Tops Mix, bake, top with a cream cheese glaze and cinnamon, and enjoy! We love these for brunch or a sweet after-dinner treat.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    For best results, use a tart or sweet-tart apple, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp or Pink Lady.
  • tip 2
    Use a cookie scoop to drop batter into neatly rounded tablespoonfuls onto cookie sheet.
  • tip 3
    Parchment paper makes for easy cleanup! If you don’t have any parchment paper, use an ungreased cookie sheet.
