Apples by the score!

9/23/2010 ~Drake's class had an apple feast and I got to help out in the classroom. To prepare for the feast all the students were asked to make an Apple Pig. That was a fun and easy activity. All of the pigs looked quite different and really took on the students' personalities.

I made the most AMAZING apple muffins for the feast.
Cream together:
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 cup applesauce
1 Tablespoon vanilla

Mix:
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoon cinnamon

3 cups peeled, cored, diced apples (around 3 apples)
Brown sugar for topping (around 1/2 cup)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Add dry ingredients to creamed mixture. The batter will be very thick. Add the diced apples. Butter & flour muffin tins or use paper liners. Fill muffin tins to the top. Sprinkle with brown sugar.

Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Makes 48 mini muffins and 12 regular size muffins.
