Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use freshly squeezed apple cider instead of store-bought.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • To make sure your cupcakes are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, they're done.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • For a fun and festive touch, decorate your cupcakes with apple cider glaze, cinnamon sugar, or chopped nuts.
