Apple Pie Cupcakes are a delicious mix of soft vanilla cupcakes and apple pie filling that you make yourself. These cupcakes are simple to make and taste just like apple pie. They're great for any event and are easy to carry around.

Ingredients: 1 cup all-purpose flour. 1/2 cup granulated sugar. 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened. 1/2 cup whole milk. 1 large egg. 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg. 1 cup diced apples peeled and cored. 1/4 cup brown sugar. 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch. 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg. 1/4 cup water. 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice.

Instructions: Warm up your oven to 350F 175C and put cupcake liners in a muffin tin. Put the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg in a bowl and mix them together. Mix in the softened butter until the dough looks like big crumbs. The milk, egg, and vanilla extract should all be mixed together in a different bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ones and mix them together just until they are mixed. Fill up about two thirds of the way to the top of each cupcake liner with the batter. Dice the apples and put them in a different saucepan. Add brown sugar, cornstarch, water, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, and the lemon juice. Over medium heat, stir the mixture every now and then until the apples are soft and the sauce has thickened, which should take about 5 to 7 minutes. Take the apple pie filling off the heat and let it cool down a bit. Add a small amount of the apple pie filling to the top of each cupcake batter in the muffin tin. After the oven is hot, bake the cupcakes for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out clean. For a few minutes, let the cupcakes cool in the muffin tin. Then, move them to a wire rack to cool completely. If you want, you can sprinkle powdered sugar over the cupcakes after they have cooled and decorate them with extra diced apples or cinnamon. Enjoy your apple pie cupcakes that you made yourself!
