Jumbo Fluffy Walnut Apple Muffins

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Coat top and insides of jumbo muffin pan with cooking spray, or line with muffin papers.

In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup butter, 1 1/4 cups sugar, vanilla, and salt until light and fluffy.

Beat in eggs, one at time.

Mix together the 1 3/4 cups of flour, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon.

Stir in the flour mixture alternately with the milk, mixing just until incorporated.

Fold in apples and walnuts.

Scoop into muffin cups to fill 3/4 full.

Lightly sprinkle the tops with cinnamon crumble.

To make Cinnamon Crumble: In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, and 2 tablespoons cubed butter.

Mix together using a pastry blender, or two butter knives.

The crumble topping should resemble small peas.

Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until tops are golden brown, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

If they are browning too quickly, cover with tin foil.

Remove from pans, and cool on wire rack.
