Maybe I missed something, but the Simple Mornings Apple Cinnamon muffin mix did not contain a cinnamon apple pouch?? Help!!!

Finally got it made. Love the granola topping. I tried not to take too many liberties with the recipe but added about 1 teaspoon nutmeg. I peeled and cut up 2 think they were Fuji apples, tossed them with a little cornstarch and raw sugar because I like sweet. Well, it took forever to bake. Finally I took it out and the apples were still a little crisp. Then I noticed the center was not completely done after I had eaten two pieces. So I put it back in the oven. All together it took about an hour with the temp probably 325 because my oven sometimes cooks hot.
So unless your 2 apples are a very quick cooking kind, I suggest you cook them in a saucepan with a tiny bit of water and sugar. Then you could probably omit the cornstarch but I'd stir a little into cold water and into the apples, let them cool, then add them to the mix.
I had it both with whipped cream and without. Good either way. Can just slice off a piece and eat it with your fingers. It did have that whole grain taste, I think that's what it was, that I'm not too used to in most baking but would make it again. When mixing it was very thick. i added a little more water, it was still thick. Part of the problem was I threw a handful of frozen blueberries in. By the time I got done, they were way overcooked. So that wasn't such a good idea. Better luck next time.

I think it tastes very good, but i would use milk instead of water...
