apple streusel coffee cake muffins

Today was our first day back to school.

It’s always exciting getting back to school especially for moms ?  Our morning schedule is a bit different this year with two different start times, and I was worried that the extra early start was not going to go over well, but the kids were up and ready in a flash today without a single complaint. They were actually quite chipper for 6:30 am.

I’m no dummy though. I know this new school year excitement is temporary, and before long I’ll be back to dragging them kicking and screaming out of bed every morning.

So I armed myself with a list of quick grab and go breakfasts that I know the kids will love.

First up, apple streusel coffee cake muffins, because back-to-school always makes me think apples.

If it’s a sweet baked good Stella is all over it, but Charlie is not a huge muffin fan. Coffee cake is an entirely different story. He loves coffee cake. I’m pretty sure it’s the streusel on top. Or maybe it’s just that he gets to eat cake for breakfast. These apple streusel muffins are coffee cake, just in muffin form. They are loaded with apples, a hint of cinnamon, and LOTS of streusel topping.

For my non-muffin lover I may have called them individual coffee cakes.
