Time 3h50m

Yield 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 ounces cold butter, cut into pieces
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
2 to 3 tablespoons ice water
Cinnamon-sugar, for dusting
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
4 carrots (about 8 ounces), peeled and grated
3 large beets (about 1 pound), peeled and grated
12 ounces oil
2 cups granulated sugar
3 eggs
3 ounces sour cream, at room temperature
3 tablespoons lemon juice
Zest of 2 lemons
12 ounces cream cheese
8 ounces butter
1 1/2 pounds powdered sugar, sifted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
2 apples, cored, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • For the cheddar cheese pie crust: In a food processor, pulse the flour and salt until well combined. Add the butter and cheese and pulse until small pea-size balls form. Gradually add the ice water, up to 3 tablespoons. Remove the dough from the food processor bowl, fold the dough, wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Dust the work space with flour. Roll out the pie dough and cut desired shapes with a cookie cutter. Place the shapes on a baking sheet, brush with water, dust with cinnamon-sugar and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
  • For the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line muffin pans with 24 muffin liners. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt until well combined. In the bowl of an electric mixer with the whisk attachment, add the carrots, beets, oil and granulated sugar and whisk on medium for 1 minute until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, scraping the bowl as needed. Add the sour cream, lemon juice and lemon zest and mix for about a minute until well combined. With the mixer on low, gradually add the flour mixture just until combined. Then remove from the mixer and scrape by hand. Fill the prepared muffin pans three-quarters full with batter and bake until a toothpick inserted comes out clean, about 24 minutes.
  • For the frosting: Whip the cream cheese and butter in an electric mixer with the paddle attachment until fully incorporated. With the mixer on low, gradually add the powdered sugar until combined. Add the vanilla and mix until combined. Finally, add the cinnamon and mix until fully incorporated.
  • For the apple filling: In medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the apples, sugar and 1/8 cup water. Bring to a boil and stir until the water has evaporated and the apples are soft. Add the cinnamon and refrigerate until cool.
  • To assemble: Use a knife to make a hole out of the center of the cupcakes. Fill with apple pie filling, and then frost with cinnamon cream cheese frosting. Top with a Cheddar cheese shape.

The Ingredients:

Before we dive into the recipe, let's take a look at the ingredients required. To make the apple and cinnamon cupcakes, you'll need:

  • 2 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp of baking powder
  • 1 tsp of ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp of salt
  • 1/2 cup of unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 cups of granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup of whole milk
  • 1 tsp of vanilla extract
  • 2 cups of finely chopped apples (use any variety you like)

The Preparation:

To make the apple and cinnamon cupcakes, start by preheating your oven to 350°F. Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners and set it aside. Then, in a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well combined. Set this dry mixture aside.

In a separate large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, cream the butter until smooth. Add the granulated sugar, and continue to beat until the mixture is light and fluffy. Then add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well between each addition. Slowly add the dry mixture, alternating with the whole milk, and continue to beat until the batter is smooth and well combined. Finally, stir in the vanilla extract and chopped apples until everything is well incorporated.

Baking and Serving:

Once the batter is ready, use an ice cream scoop or a spoon to fill each cupcake liner with the batter until it is about 2/3 full. Bake the cupcakes in your preheated oven for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Once they're done, remove the cupcakes from the oven and allow them to cool on a wire rack for 10-15 minutes. Once the cupcakes are completely cool, you can serve them as they are or decorate them with your preferred icing, toppings or filling.

Apple and Cinnamon cupcakes are a delicious and classic dessert. They offer a perfect blend of flavors that are both sweet and spicy. They can be enjoyed at any time of the year, but especially during the fall, when apples are in season. This article will provide valuable tips for making apple and cinnamon cupcakes that are moist, flavorful, and irresistible. 1. Choosing the right apples: When making apple and cinnamon cupcakes, it is essential to choose the right type of apple. Granny Smith apples are the best for baking since they hold their shape well and have a slightly tart flavor that complements the sweetness of the cupcakes. However, if you want a sweeter cupcake, you can use Honeycrisp or Pink Lady apples instead. 2. Preparing the apples: Before adding the apples to the cupcakes, it is crucial to prepare them correctly. Peel and core the apples, then cut them into small pieces. It is essential to cut them into small pieces to ensure that they cook evenly and are distributed evenly throughout the cupcakes. Additionally, toss the apple pieces in lemon juice to prevent them from browning. 3. Using the right spices: Cinnamon is a staple spice in apple desserts, but it is not the only spice that can be used. Nutmeg, clove, and allspice are other spices that can be used to enhance the flavors of the cupcakes. However, it is important not to use too much of any one spice as it can overpower the other flavors. 4. Adding moisture: The key to making moist cupcakes is to add moisture to the batter. Applesauce is an excellent alternative to oil or butter and can help keep the cupcakes moist. Additionally, sour cream or yogurt can also be used to add moisture to the batter. Adding buttermilk can also help keep the cupcakes from drying out. 5. Mixing the batter: When mixing the batter, it is essential not to overmix it. Overmixing can cause the gluten in the flour to develop, resulting in tough and dense cupcakes. Mix the dry ingredients and wet ingredients separately before combining them. Mix until just combined to prevent overmixing. 6. Baking the cupcakes: When baking the cupcakes, it is important to preheat the oven to the correct temperature. Over or underbaking the cupcakes can result in dry or overcooked cupcakes. Bake the cupcakes for the time indicated in the recipe or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. 7. Decorating the cupcakes: When decorating the cupcakes, it is important to let them cool completely before frosting them. Frost the cupcakes with cream cheese frosting or vanilla buttercream frosting. For an extra special touch, decorate the cupcakes with caramel sauce or chopped pecans. Conclusion: Apple and cinnamon cupcakes are a delicious and classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With these valuable tips, you can ensure that your cupcakes are moist, flavorful, and irresistible. From choosing the right apples to adding moisture to the batter, following these tips will help you create the perfect apple and cinnamon cupcakes every time. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet treat, give these cupcakes a try!
