  3. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line two 12 cup muffin trays with paper liner cups.
  4. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon until well combined (this will help the muffins be tender).
  5. In a medium bowl whisk together the eggs, melted butter, sugar and milk.
  6. Add the wet mixture to the flour mixture slowly while whisking.
  7. Whisk until the mixture is just barely combined (do not over-mix).
  8. Fold in the apples.
  9. Fill the muffin liners 3/4 full.
  10. Sprinkle the crumble mixture over the muffins in clumps to make nice crumbs.
  11. Bake for 20-24 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  12. Let cool completely.
  13. To make icing, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract and cinnamon until smooth and drizzle the thick icing over the muffins.
  14. Let sit 20 minutes to harden.
