Upside Down Apple Cinnamon Muffins image

For the Make It Healthier tag game, I lightened up MsSally's"Recipe #277875, #277875", by using low fat yogurt, skim milk, eliminating the vegetable shortening, and adding apples. This would be good with peaches or apricots, too.

4 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 apples, peeled and cut into little pieces

1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup low-fat yogurt
1/4 cup butter, melted
3 tablespoons skim milk
1 large egg, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375º.

  • Mix together the 4 tablespoons of sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon; sprinkle less than a teaspoon of this mixture into each tin.

  • Stir together apple and honey.
  • Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the apple mixture into each muffin cup.
  • In a medium size bowl, lightly spoon flour into measuring cups, and level with a knife.
  • Combine flour and the next 3 ingredients (flour through salt) in this bowl, stirring well with a whisk.
  • Make a well in center of flour mixture.
  • In another medium size bowl, combine the yogurt, butter, milk, and egg in a bowl, stirring well with a whisk.
  • Add yogurt mixture to flour mixture, stirring just until moist.
  • It will be thick.
  • Spoon half the batter into each tin, sprinkle on some reserved cinnamon sugar, and top with remaining batter.
  • Top with the reserved cinnamon sugar.
  • Bake at 375º for 20 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Cool in the pan for 15 minutes.
  • Flip the pan onto a wire rack WITHOUT removing the pan immediately.
  • Even if the apples do stay in the pan, simply spoon them onto the top of the muffins.

I didn't have any apples, so I used pears instead. They worked just as well.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the walnuts for chopped pecans. They turned out great!

I had some trouble getting the muffins to rise properly. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

I'm not a huge fan of apples, but I really enjoyed these muffins. The cinnamon flavor is really strong and it balances out the sweetness of the apples.
