Applesauce Cupcakes image

I haven't had the chance to try this yet, for I can't have an oven in a college dorm. Found this on the American Girl website and thought it sounded very yummy!

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups flour, sifted
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup shortening
3/4 cup honey
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 cup seedless raisin
1/4 cup broken walnut pieces
your favourite frosting

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350. Line the cupcake pans with paper liners.
  • Put the sifter into the medium mixing bowl. Measure the sifted flour, baking soda, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, and salt into the sifter. Sift these dry ingredients into the bowl.
  • Measure the shortening into the large mixing bowl. Use the electric mixer to beat the shortening until it is fluffy.
  • Add the honey to the shortening and continue to beat the mixture for 2 minutes. Stop the mixer once or twice and use the rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • Add half the applesauce and half the sifted dry ingredients to the honey-and-shortening mixture. Mix at medium speed until all the flour disappears. Stop once or twice to scrape down the sides of the bowl with the spatula.
  • Add the remaining applesauce and dry ingredients. Mix again until everything is blended.
  • Use the wooden spoon to stir in the raisins and walnut pieces.
  • Spoon the batter into the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.
  • Bake the cupcakes for 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Poke a toothpick through the center of a cupcake. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cupcakes are done. Set them on the racks to cool.
  • After 10 minutes, take the cupcakes out of the pans and let them cool completely on the racks before frosting them.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cupcakes turned out dry. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cupcakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm allergic to apples, so I substituted applesauce with mashed bananas. The cupcakes turned out great!
