Whole Wheat Apple Muffins

I'm proud of these babies. Jen, Omer, and Niki have all approved these muffins which makes me so happy/relieved because this summer has been one of baking failures. Cooking successes, but baking failures. Here's the recipe.

I took SmittenKitchen's advice and topped the muffins with a lot of brown sugar (and cinnamon, of course) and this made the tops crunchy and delicious. Other alterations to the recipe: I threw in some walnuts, doubled the amount of cinnamon, and substituted heavy cream with 1 tbs lemon for the yogurt. This makes me seem somewhat competent, but I honestly panicked when I realized that I didn't have yogurt. But the internet is a wonderful thing and after some intense googling I discovered the substitute. I've already devoured three. Whole wheat is good for you, right? ;)

Omer took some photos too, so you may see some better gratuitous food porn shots up here soon.
