Intro

Apple Cider Cupcakes is a good one for the fall season. Grab an apple and some Cider for this one! This one is surprisingly not bad to make. The hardest part for me was icing the cupcakes. I’m going to have to work on that! You need a fall treat then give Apple Cider Cupcakes a try. I’d recommend them to any apple lover. Give it a go this fall!

Ingredients

2 Eggs
1 2/3 cups of flour
1 cup of apple cider
1 graded apple
2/3 Cup of Sugar
½ cup of unsalted butter softened
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
½ tsp of salt

Frosting

1 Cup of Softened butter
3 cups of powdered sugar
½ Cup of brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
2 TBS Milk
1 tsp vanilla

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 Degrees Fahrenheit.
Get out 2 large bowls. In one bowl put in all the dry ingredients and use a whisk to combine all of the ingredients. (Flour, Baking Powder, Ground Cinnamon, &Salt)
Now in the second bowl cream the butter & sugar together. Add in the eggs and a graded apple. Mix these very well.
Finally pour half of the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients bowl and start to mix slowly with a hand mixer.
Add in the Apple cider and the other half of the dry ingredients. Continue to mix with the hand mixer.
Prepare a cupcake tray by putting paper cups in each of the cups of the tray.
Fill the paper cups about ¾ of the way full.
Bake in the oven for 17-20 minutes. Test by using a toothpick. If the toothpick comes out clean then they are done.
Once done remove them from the oven and let them cool.
While cooling you can make the frosting.
Cream together the brown sugar and butter and then add in the remaining frosting ingredients. Use a hand mixer to get them all combined.
To get the right consistency you may need to add more milk.
Once the frosting is done you can frost your cupcakes.
Unwrap a cupcake and enjoy your efforts!
