Hey everyone! Serene from House of Yumm back with you today! And due to everyone heading back to school and my sudden desire for all things Fall (thank you internet for exploding all things pumpkin already!), I’m bringing you these Apple Crumb Muffins.

I have a deep deep love for muffins. From my Zucchini Crumb Muffins  to my mini Oatmeal Raisin Muffins, muffins are always my first choice when it comes to breakfast. Well. It’s between that and oatmeal. But muffins are compact and easy to grab and go. Plus I get to smother them in butter.

I have the deepest love for bakery style muffins. You know the ones, they are oh so soft and more cake like. They crumble when you break them apart. And biting into them is a tiny glimpse into heaven. Well, that’s exactly what these muffins are. And that’s thanks to not shying away from the combination of butter and brown sugar. Sometimes a little indulgence is needed.

The best part? This muffin recipe can easily be adapted to become any muffin you want it to be. Don’t want apples? Toss in some blueberries. Or maybe some strawberries! But for now, with my mind set on Fall, these Apple Crumb Muffins are perfection.
