APPLE PIE MUFFINS – The Southern Lady Cooks

If you are a fan of Apple Pie, you will want to give these delicious muffins a try! They are easy and fantastic with a cup of coffee.

❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

We love a good muffin, and these are great with the apple pie filling. Then you add the pecans and all the delicious spices, and you have a delightful treat! These muffins are super versatile and keep well in an airtight container. They make about 18 muffins!

SWAPS & ADDITIONS

These muffins could be made with any pie filling. You could also add raisins to the muffins and top these with a little brown sugar too. If you are not a fan of the spices, simply switch them up. You can use pecans, walnuts or no nuts at all. Top these with a basic powdered sugar glaze if you like. You can freeze these muffins.

⭐TIP

I keep these in the refrigerator or a cool place. They would be great warmed up with ice cream too. You can freeze these.

Cuisine American

• 1 21 ounce can apple pie filling (I use Duncan Hines Original Country Apple Pie Filling)
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
• 3 tablespoons butter melted
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup nut pieces Optional

• In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon. Add the vanilla extract, buttermilk, melted butter and eggs. Mix well with a spoon.

• Spray a 12 cup muffin tin, add about 1/4 cup batter to each cup. Drop about 1 tablespoon of the apple pie filling into the batter. Sprinkle nuts on top. Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven 25 to 30 minutes until brown on top.

• This recipe makes around 18 muffins.

You can make these with about any kind of pie filling. They keep well and easily reheat in the microwave. I refrigerate any leftover. We love the filling “oozing” out of the muffins. You could add raisins along with the nuts and you could sprinkle a little brown sugar and cinnamon on top before baking.
