About

Fall is one of my favorite seasons in Savannah, and we love to load up on bushels of apples at our farmers’ market. Honeycrisp apples are Griff’s apple of choice, and they are perfect for this recipe. You can also use Pink Lady, Granny Smith, or any firm apple with a slightly tart taste. The angostura bitters add an herbal note that complements the flavor of the muffins.
