My cinnamon apple muffins are SO good on a cool fall morning with a warm cup of tea. Bake time differs, depending on location. Some say they take up to 26 minutes to bake. Either way, let your nose be your guide. When you begin to smell them, they are nearly finished. Once they bounce back to the touch, they are ready to be pulled out to cool.
