Apple-Almond Muffins image

I like to snack on apple slices slathered with almond butter. That's the flavor combo that inspired these muffins. Add a dash of almond extract to boost the nuttiness. -Kelly Alesso, Chicago, IL

These muffins were a bit too crumbly for my taste, but they still had a good flavor.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my muffins turned out really dense. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

These muffins were a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I might try adding some more butter or oil next time.

These muffins were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
