Muffins:
1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup quick-cooking oats
2/3 cup sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsps cinnamon
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup butter or margarine, melted
1/4 cup Vermont maple syrup
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 cups chopped, peeled apples
12 pecan halves
Glaze:
1/3 cup confectioners sugar
2 Tbsps Vermont maple syrup
Directions:
In a large bowl, combine flour, oats, sugar, baking powder and cinnamon. In a small bowl, mix milk, butter, syrup and egg; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in apples. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups three-fourths full. Top each with a pecan half. Bake at 400° for 18-20 minutes (or until muffins test done).
