Apple Pie Cupcakes
Yield: 24 cupcakes
Ingredients:
For the cupcakes:
3 cups sifted cake flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
½ tsp. salt
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 ½ tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup milk
For the apple filling:
2 tbsp. butter
2 tsp. cinnamon
2-3 tbsp. sugar
3 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and diced
For decorating:
vanilla buttercream (I used 3/4 of a batch)
Directions:
To make the cupcakes, preheat the oven to 350°. Line two cupcake pans with paper liners.
In a medium bowl, sift together the cake flour, baking powder and salt. In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well and scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix well to combine. Add in the dry ingredients alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling them about 2/3-3/4 full. Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 18 to 22 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes in the pans. Transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
To make the apple filling, heat the butter a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cinnamon and sugar and cook for a minute, until the mixture begins to bubble. Lower the heat to medium and stir in the apples. Mix well. Cook until the apples are somewhat tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
While the apple mixture is cooling, use the cone method to remove a chunk from the center of each cupcake, making sure to leave a rim around the top of the cupcake. Fill the holes with the cooled apple mixture. To decorate, top each cupcake with a swirl of vanilla buttercream.
I was watching Cake Boss on Netflix and he gave some tips to a woman who helped sell Apple cakes for people who needed help making mortgage payments.Buddy said add cinnamon, nutmeg,
and lemon zest, to vanilla batter, top the batter with apples (they looked spiced also) maybe rubbed with cinnamon, sugar and some lemon juice and a small dollop of butter. I was thinking of calling them a dutch apple cupcake.
I did something similar for Thanksgiving. I made a yellow cake and used apple cider for the liquid. Then I tossed granny smith apples in cinnamon sugar and nutmeg, layered them on top. This was a cake but you cut chopp the apples for cupcakes. It was really yummy.
For the apple cider, I used the no 'sugar added mix' but I put 3 packets of mix in the water. The no sugar added didn't use artificial sweetener so the cider was nice and tart. I'm debating stocking up on the cider mix for after the holidays

oh wow really great post. nice information dear and i appreciate to this....
There is a amazing recipe on CC for peach cobbler cupcakes. With the spices and struesel topping, I would think apple could be substituted for the peaches. It is really delicious.
