Mini Apple Donut Muffins

By srumbel

The batter for these is really simple and loaded with shredded raw apple. When it’s shredded it’s so fine you hardly get the texture of the apple, just the flavor. If you want bigger chunks of apple, chop the apple instead of shred it:) Hot out of the oven, you dip these babies in butter, then roll ‘em in a cinnamon-sugar mixture. We’re talking melt-in-your-mouth goo-oood.
