Ingredients

2   Granny Smith apples, peeled, quartered & cored
2   tbsp brown sugar
12   cup butter, softened & divided
12   cup plain Greek yogurt
2   large eggs, at room temperature
13   cup buttermilk, reduced fat
1   cup granulated sugar
1   tsp vanilla extract
114   tsp baking powder
12   tsp sea salt
2   tsp ground cinnamon, divided
18   tsp ground nutmeg
18   tsp ground ginger
18   tsp ground cloves
112   cups sifted all-purpose flour

Method

 
  1. Preheat oven to 350ᵒ. Line muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. For the pie filling, add half of the apples pieces to the WildSide+ jar and secure lid. Press “Pulse” 3-5 times until the apples are chopped. Dump chopped apples into a small saucepan. Repeat with remaining apple pieces.
  3. Add 1 tbsp butter, brown sugar and 1/2 tsp cinnamon to saucepan and over medium heat, cook apples until softened, approximately 5-10 minutes. 
  4. Meanwhile, add remaining butter, yogurt, eggs, buttermilk, granulated sugar, and vanilla to WildSide+ jar and secure lid. 
  5. Blend on a Low speed for 10 seconds.
  6. Add dry ingredients and secure lid. 
  7. Blend on a Low speed for 20-30 seconds until dry ingredients are mixed. Stop blending midway to scrape sides of jar and then continue blending.
  8. Place 1 tbsp batter in muffin cups. Then place 1 tbsp pie filling over batter and top with another tbsp of batter. If necessary, use a knife to smooth the cake batter over the apple pie filling.
  9. Bake for 16-19 minutes. Repeat step 8 with remaining batter.

Try topping it with our Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting or Whipped Cream.
