Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 English Muffins
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 4 Tablespoons butter, softened
  • ¼ cup sliced almonds
  • 4 oz cream cheese

Instructions

  • Turn oven on to broil.
  • Split English muffins and lay them open on your baking sheet.
  • Combine the cinnamon and sugar and mix both with the softened butter. Spread this mixture on each muffin half; yes, be generous!
  • Place cookie sheet on the middle rack in your oven and broil for about 2 minutes watching closely.
  • Remove from oven and sprinkle with the slivered almonds.
  • Place them back under the broiler to toast the almonds; watch CLOSELY; should take about a minute to brown the almonds.
  • Serve with plain cream cheese.

Notes

To Make the Sassy Apples:
  • 2 cooking apples, peeled cored and cut into bite size chunks (use a firm apple that will hold up...in other words, NOT a red delicious)
  • 1 Tbsp butter
  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  1. Combine the apples, butter and cinnamon in a small pan on medium heat; cook until the apple chunks have started to soften; approximately 15 minutes.
  2. Remove from heat and set aside to cool a bit; serve on the side of the Gooey Buns.
