- Crumb topping-in a small bowl, work together the flour, butter, oats, brown sugar and cinnamon with your fingertips until the mixture is crumbly.

- Pour over the apple mixture and stir just until combined; do not overmix.
- Using a 1/3-cup food portion scoop or a spoon, transfer equal amounts of the batter into the prepared muffin cups; the cups will be full.
