How To Make autumn harvest muffins
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 450° F. Spray muffin or mini muffin pans liberally with a butter flavored spray.
-
Step 2In a large bowl, combine Bisquick, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. Add yogurt and stir just until blended. Add ginger ale and stir until well mixed.
-
Step 3Fold in mixture of apple pieces and slivered almonds (optional).
-
Step 4Scoop heaping spoonfuls into prepared muffin pans (regular or mini). As this is a stiff dough, you can fill a bit fuller than you would normally fill a muffin pan,
-
Step 5Bake at 450° for 10 minutes.
-
Step 6While muffins are baking, prepare the icing.
-
Step 7Cut 2 tablespoons of room temperature butter into 1 cup of powdered (confectioner's) sugar.
-
Step 8Add almond and apple flavoring. Blend well. Add half and half and stir until smooth. (You may need to adjust powdered sugar and/or half and half) Microwave for 10 seconds to create perfect drizzle.
-
Step 9Remove muffins from oven. Place on serving tray while still very warm and drizzle with the apple almond icing.
-
Step 10Serve while still warm. These are great paired with homemade apple butter. YUMMY!
