Apple Spice Cupcakes with Carmel Fudge Icing


I've already told you about the apple glut, so you'll understand when I say that I've been scanning every cookbook in sight for apple-based delights. It tuns out apples are very versatile! This recipe came straight from page 252 of Isa and Terry's Veganomicon. My mum makes a delicious apple cake that I've been missing out on since I went vegan so I was glad to see this recipe. Her apple dapple cake is baked in a tube-pan then covered in walnuts and a brown sugar glaze. The apples make for a very moist and flavorful cake. The frosting here is a penuche icing, a candy-like fudge so delicious and old-fashioned that you'll want to really load it on.

Aprons on, ladies and gents!

  3. Agreed, they were amazing!! Moses ate most of the frosting off the top of his and my cupcakes, but i got a little bit, and even just the cupcakes alone were delicious. (This is Lisa V writing here, Natalie, love the blog).
