Apple Cinnamon Muffin

I used to love making the apple muffins from the box, they tasted so good. Whenever I'm really craving something yummy, I go for a bread of some sort, or a muffin. That was the case for yesterday. Either the Cinnamon Swirl Banana Bread or some kind of muffin. I've never made apple muffins from scratch before, and I have a bunch of apples left over from this year so I thought I would try it out! And man are they good! Super moist, chunks of apples and not too sweet. Sounds like the perfect treat to me!

Apple Cinnamon Muffins

Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cup flour
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 t salt
- 2 t baking powder
- 1 t cinnamon
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup milk

Topping Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup flour
- 1/2 cup butter, cubed

Preheat oven to 400. Grease muffin pan or line with liners. Stir together flour, sugar, salt, baking power and cinnamon. Mix in oil, eggs and milk. Fold in the apples. Spoon in the batter to the muffin pan.

In a small bowl, stir together all of the topping ingredients. Sprinkle over top of the uncooked muffins.

Bake for 25 minutes.

Enjoy the smell that comes off of these babies! Mmm!

White Chocolate Chip & Cranberry Cookies

I was craving a cookie but didn't want an old fashion chocolate chip, or something over powering with sweetness. I had all of these ingredients just sitting in my pantry waiting for me to use to make something quick & delicious.

Stir in flour, salt & baking soda (it gets pretty stiff). Add white chocolate chips & cranberries. (at this point i just hand stirred everything in instead of having the dough get stuck to the whisks on the electric mixer). Drop by rounded teaspoons on baking sheet, space them about...
