Note

For best results, use sharp cheddar for a stronger flavor contrast with the sweet apples.

You can substitute frozen corn with fresh or canned corn, ensuring it is well-drained.

To freeze, wrap cooled muffins individually in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag; they will keep for up to 3 months.
