  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg (more or less to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon apple pie spice (optional) (more or less to taste)
  • 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon apple flavoring
  • 1/2 cup ginger ale
  • 1/2 cup apple pieces/almond slivers mixed
  • ICING

How To Make autumn harvest muffins

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 450° F. Spray muffin or mini muffin pans liberally with a butter flavored spray.
  • Step 2
    In 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 3
    Fold in mixture of apple pieces and slivered almonds (optional).
  • Step 4
    Scoop 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 5
    Bake at 450° for 10 minutes.
  • Step 6
    While muffins are baking, prepare the icing.
  • Step 7
    Cut 2 tablespoons of room temperature butter into 1 cup of powdered (confectioner's) sugar.
  • Step 8
    Add 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 9
    Remove muffins from oven. Place on serving tray while still very warm and drizzle with the apple almond icing.
  • Step 10
    Serve while still warm. These are great paired with homemade apple butter. YUMMY!
