Cinnamon Apple Cranberry Muffins

Ingredients:

- 2 cups flour
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups (12 oz) sour cream
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

- 1 cup chopped peeled apple
- 1 cup dried cranberries

- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 2 tablespoons cold butter

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Coat muffin cups with cooking spray or use paper liners.

In a large bowl, combine the first nine ingredients.

In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, butter, and vanilla. Stir into the dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in apple and cranberries.

Fill muffin cups 2/3 full with batter.

Combine the brown sugar and flour in a small bowl, then cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over batter.

Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing to wire racks.
