Yields10 ServingsPrep Time10 minsCook Time25 minsTotal Time35 mins

Cupcakes
 1 cup flour
 ½ tsp baking soda
 ½ tsp cinnamon
 pinch salt
 ½ cup vegetable oil
  cup granulated sugar
  cup brown sugar
 1 large egg
 1 tsp vanilla extract
 1 cup apples, peeled and diced small
Topping
 2 ½ tbsp butter
 1 ½ tbsp milk
  cup brown sugar
1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a standard muffin tin with 10 cupcake liners. Fill the remaining two cups almost halfway with water.

2

Whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

3

In a separate bowl, beat vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar well. Add egg and vanilla then beat until evenly combined.

4

Gradually mix the dry mixture into the wet mixture.

5

Stir in apples.

6

Divide batter evenly between baking cups, filling each about 2/3 full.

7

Bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the edges are barely golden.

8

Prepare the topping while the cakes are baking. Heat butter, milk, and brown sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, turn the heat to medium low, and let simmer for about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Transfer to a small bowl or cup.

9

Remove cakes from oven. Poke a hole, about a centimeter in diameter, in the center of each one. A chopstick or the back of a utensil works well for this. Spoon a generous amount of topping on each cake, spreading it over the top and allowing it to seep into the middle.

10

Savor them warm OR refrigerate and enjoy them chilled!
