If you love apples, you’re going to fall in love with these moist apple cupcakes! They are incredibly delicious, tender, and bursting with fresh apple flavor. The combination of freshly grated apples and warm cinnamon makes these cupcakes perfect for fall—cozy, comforting, and so satisfying.
One unique step in this recipe is the addition of warm, spiced tea (or warm cream), which helps create an exceptionally soft and tender crumb.
This step is especially important in apple-based cupcakes, where the natural moisture from the fruit can sometimes make the texture denser. The warmth of the tea enhances the batter, ensuring a light, delicate, and perfectly moist cupcake.
These cupcakes are delicious on their own, but if you’d like to add an extra layer of flavor, you can top them with ganache. My Tea-Flavored Ganache or any fruit-infused ganache makes a wonderful complement.
Hope you love them as much as I do!
