    Vanilla Glazed Apple Cinnamon Muffins

    Apple cinnamon muffins topped with a warm vanilla glaze.

    Oh my December. This calls for a muffin or three!

    Muffins are so lovable that if I make them on Saturday, which I obviously do, always, I will end up eating at least three. It’s guaranteed. I am sucker for those little muffies. Especially if they aren’t actually little.

    And besides loving muffins, I so so so love baking with apples.

    Apples plus muffins? Yes, friends. I’m gettin’ wild.

    Besides loving all things apple and muffin, I am also loving this band!

    They’re called Boyce Avenue and they allow me to love pop music in a new way. And I love pop music in all ways.

    Are you going to buy their CD as a Christmas gift to yourself? Good idea.
