Apple Cupcakes Maple Cream Cheese Frosting

Step 1

In a large bowl mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder, nutmeg, cloves, and cinnamon.

Mix the Dry Ingredients

In another large bowl combine eggs, vanilla, brown sugar, granulated sugar, applesauce, and sour cream.

Mix Wet Ingredients

Step 2

Add the wet ingredients and shredded apple into the dry ingredients and use a spatula to gently fold the batter until just combined.

Step 3

I like to use a large cookie scoop to portion the cupcake batter into the liners. Bake for 17-20 minutes or until set and no wet batter comes out on a toothpick. Let cool completely before frosting.

Step 4

Frost with your favorite piping tip or use a large plastic bag with the corner cut off to make nice swirls.
