Hot Apple Muffin

Directions

TOPPING: To prepare the topping, core and peel the apples, keeping them whole.

Cut each one into 4 to 5 thick rings.

Mix the sugar and cinnamon together and coat the apple rings.

Reserve.

MUFFIN: Sift together the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl.

In another bowl beat the eggs, add the milk and melted butter.

Stir the liquid very quickly into the flour mixture - do not beat and do not worry about lumps.

Speed is essential.

Fold in the chopped apples. Fill 24 (5in.) greased muffins tins or paper cases, filled to one-third, and put one cinnamon apple ring on each muffin.

Bake in a preheated hot oven 425F, for 15 to 25 minutes, until cooked.

Remove from tins and serve hot.
