These Apple Muffins are delicious warm and topped with butter.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter (at room temperature)
• 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 1/4 cups buttermilk
• 4 cups flour
• 3 tablespoons ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups peeled McIntosh apples, sliced in
•     1/2-inch pieces (2 to 3 medium)
• Additional brown sugar to top muffins

Directions

1. With rubber spatula, cream butter and sugars by hand until fluffy. Add eggs and cream; beat until fluffy. Blend in buttermilk.
2. Add flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Mix until all lumps have dissolved; do not overmix. Add apples. (Batter will be thicker than typical muffin batter.)
