How to Serve these Applesauce Cinnamon Muffins: I like to slice a hot muffin in half and put a pat of butter inside for a little extra richness. For day-old muffins, slice one in half and toast it. Then spread some cream cheese on both halves. Apple butter would also be a nice addition. Mmm, the possibilities are endless!
