I wanted to enjoy sweets on Thanksgiving but couldn't have any gluten or dairy at the time because I was working with a dietitian for my gut issues. So, on the day of Thanksgiving I came up with these delicious Apple Crumble Muffins to enjoy the morning of. They were an amazing start to the busy cooking day, but I made sure to make enough to enjoy at the end of the night as well! They are gluten free and dairy free, yet PACKED with flavor. I actually ended up making them twice because they didn't turn out the way I wanted to the day of, so I made another batch the next day and they were much better. The one thing I do want to mention is that since they are apple crumble pie-like they are a bit moist on the inside, which is how I wanted them to be! So let’s get to it.
