How to Make Apple Crumble Cupcakes

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups diced apples
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup streusel topping (optional)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Fold in the diced apples and cinnamon.
Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners.
(Optional) Sprinkle streusel topping on each cupcake if desired.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Allow to cool for a few minutes in the pan before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

How to Serve Apple Crumble Cupcakes

These cupcakes are delightful on their own, warm or at room temperature. You can serve them plain or add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on top for an extra treat. They make an excellent dessert for gatherings or a cozy snack for family.

How to Store Apple Crumble Cupcakes

Once cooled, store the cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. If you want to keep them longer, you can freeze them. Just wrap each cupcake individually and place them in a freezer bag. They can last for up to three months in the freezer. Thaw them at room temperature when you’re ready to enjoy!

Tips to Make Apple Crumble Cupcakes

Make sure to use firm apples that hold their shape when baked, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
To enhance the flavor, you can add some chopped nuts, like walnuts or pecans, to the batter.
If you prefer a sweeter cupcake, you can adjust the amount of sugar to your liking.

Variation

You can easily customize these cupcakes by adding other fruits like pears or berries. You might also try using different spices, such as nutmeg or allspice, for a unique twist.

FAQs

1. Can I make these cupcakes ahead of time?
Yes, you can make them a day in advance. Just store them in an airtight container at room temperature.

2. Can I substitute the butter with oil?
Yes, you can use vegetable oil instead of melted butter. However, the texture and flavor may vary slightly.

3. How do I know when the cupcakes are done baking?
Insert a toothpick in the center of a cupcake. If it comes out clean or with a few crumbs, they are done. If it comes out with wet batter, they need more time.
