How many consecutive days can I post apple recipes before I'm labelled a fanatic? 😉😬😅  I'm a little worried that I've become so obsessed with new apple recipes that my husband is going to block my credit card from any more apple purchases.🍎  He loves a good apple streusel and pie as much as the next guy but I feel like I may be reaching my limit.😂

I have no reasonable explanation for my recent apple obsession but I've decided to embrace it instead of analyzing it.🤣  Apple cake, apple pie, apple cider donuts, caramel apple crumb bars, apple gateau and possibly my favorite new apple recipe of all ... apple cider muffins.  ​

Forget the Pumpkin Spice trend - I'm here to start the Apple Spice revolution.🍎😂 Who's with me? 

You're getting a triple dose of apple in these the yummy little muffins.  Shredded apple, reduced apple cider and applesauce all work together to give you that delicious burst of fresh apple flavor with each bite. 🍎  I used a Granny Smith apple for mine because that was what I had on hand but feel free to swap it out for your favorite apple variety in these tasty little treats.
