My children are off track and on these cold fall days it can be challenging to figure out ways to keep them busy, and me from pulling my hair out. My boys find joy in wrestling and throwing the football all over the house, but my girls’ favorite activity is to be in the kitchen with me cooking. My daughter had her friend over the other day and I found a recipe for these yummy Apple Strudel Muffins. They were thrilled to be able to cook something all by themselves. I figured this recipe was the perfect one to share with you this month while apples are on sale and to help you incorporate your powdered eggs and milk into your baking. These muffins were moist, soft and had a delicious cake-like texture. Give them a try, and you will love how easy it is to use powdered eggs and milk in your recipes (it’s so easy even 10 year olds can do it!) Enjoy!

- 1 c. all purpose flour (or all wheat flour)
- 1 t. baking powder
- 1/2 t. baking soda
- 1/2 t. salt

Stir in apples and then gradually blend in the flour mixture. Spoon the mixture into the prepared muffin pan.To make cinnamon topping- in a small bowl mix brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Cut in butter until the mixture is like coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over the tops of the batter in the muffin pan.Place into the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
May I ask, Are you using instant or non-instant powdered milk in your recipes? I have found that I only need half as much non-instant over the instant. I was just wondering so I know how much of my non-instant I need to use (and for future recipes). Thanks
Non instant milk 🙂
Is there anyway you can give us a hint on the December goal. I am heading to the cannery in November and would love to get the December goal too. Your Positively Prepardness has changed my outlook on food storage! Thanks
We tried these yesterday. They were delicious!
