This weekend was fan-tab-u-lous. I went to the football game, had an amazing trail run, cooked, and did another portrait shoot! I wish it could be eternal fall.
It’s definitely that time of year when allll the “limited edition” “seasonal” “get it before it’s gone” stuff is out. I saw these apple pie spiced english muffins at the store and instantly knew I needed them in my life.
Instead of buying them I went home and looked for a homemade apple english muffin recipe. Do you know how many I found?!
Zero. ZERO. Z-E-R-O. Google didn’t have the answer. Is that even possible?
So I decided to create my own recipe.
YOU GUYS. I can’t even. I had been a little scared that I lost my baking touch (coughcoughcinnamonrollsnotrising) but it’s BACK. And it might be better than ever.
I think apples get overshadowed by pumpkin during the fall. I’m totally for pumpkin EVERYTHING but don’t forget about the apples! Especially if they’re local… the best.
This was my first time making English muffins from scratch and I urge you to try making them if you haven’t before. If you think ones from the store are good you’ll be BLOWN AWAY by homemade ones!
I may have had two straight out of the oven…
worth it.
They’re studded with little bites of apple and cinnamon in every bite. I meant to add some whole wheat flour to the dough but before I realized it I had added all all-purpose! Oops. I’m sure whole wheat would work too!
They’re even dad-approved. Dad, who doesn’t like most things that start with V and rhyme with egan. It’s true, these are vegan! Linking up with Meatless Monday too!
How do you like dem apples?

English muffins are the best! I loveeeee making them!
Right? So yummy!!
I cannot tell you how happy I am to find this recipe through the Meatless Monday linkup!! My girls, my oldest in particular, love the Special Edition English Muffins and breads right now. We normally only purchase sprouted whole grain breads and don’t eat much at that but they have been going crazy over the breads and I have bought them but was really wishing there were healthier options out there as well as a gluten free option. I am not a bread maker, I leave that to my husband as it is the one thing I don’t make, so I never thought to attempt to make english muffins but I will have to now!! Thank you for posting this fabulous recipe!
I’m so happy you love this recipe, Sarah!! I agree with you – I prefer using whole grain but sometimes those special edition items just look too good! Let me know if you make these… I’m sure your girls will love them!
These sound delicious and SO perfect for Fall!!
wow they look so good im just back from school and want to raid a few fridges and I defo want some of these!!!
ps.anyone reading this who follows my blog ive moved to wordpress-theyumzgirl.worpress.com thanks <3
I’m pretty sure if I died and went to heaven they would be serving these…. HOLY MOLY. GIRL. SERIOUSLY. These look absolutely amazing! I’m all for the limited-edition foods (have you seen the apple pie bagels they have at some grocery stores?), but being able to make your own homemade version is always best. Especially when they turn out this delicious!
YUM.
By the way, how are your photoshoots going :)>
YES I’ve seen the apple pie bagels!!! Actually, that’s what these were supposed to be… but then I made english muffins, haha!
Awesome!! Got any tips for editing them for me?
Those look great! I love apples in the fall too. Your pics are fabulous-that’s my weak spot. Thanks for linking up with us today hope you will check out some of our recipes as well.
Man, English Muffins must be invading all us food-bloggers thoughts! I was seriously going to make some today! These look amazing:) Can’t wait to try a whole wheat recipe out!

Oh no!! You should try them again. Homemade english muffins are amazing!
This looks absolutely delicious!! I am pinning this to make this season!

Holy yummm! These look absolutely delicious! I often leave apple in the background, next to pumpkin, and that needs to change. Do you ship?
Just give me your address!
Leigha, these are amazing! Not only are they perfect for meatless monday, but they sound SO good, and how seasonal! I am so impressed you made these, you are tempting me to try and make some now! Glad you are enjoying your weekends so much!
Thanks Tina!! You should definitely try making them
I love english muffins but have never made my own before! You definitely have inspired me to recreate these apple flavoured muffins – they look so delicious and i bet they tasted even better.
Make some! You don’t realize what you’re missing until you actually have a homemade one… so yummy
I’m lone with these muffins!! Looks sooooo good. I love how you just made your own recipe
And you a re quite right – apples are totally forgotten during fall because of pumpkin
Haha right? Ooooh… I wonder how pumpkin english muffins would be
