Our recipe of the month is from JAZZ™ Apple Foundation star Aliyah Afolabi who’s not only proving to be a superstar on the track but also in the kitchen too. These JAZZ™ Apple Crumble Cupcakes are one of her favourites and a tasty treat in between meals. Delicious on their own, they can be supersized for a deluxe and jazzy dessert with the addition of your favourite ice cream. Time to dust off your apron!

Ingredients

  • 2 JAZZ™ Apples, peeled, cored and diced
  • 120ml milk
  • 80ml vegetable oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 160g flour
  • 150g sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 65g flour
  • 100g Brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 60g butter

Method

  • Mix together the oil, milk, egg and vanilla in a bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and then fold in the apples.
  • Next combine the wet and the dry ingredients and add to cupcake moulds.
  • Quickly mix the crumble ingredients – the flour, sugar, cinnamon, butter – using your fingers to make the mixture resemble breadcrumbs and then add to the top of the cake batter.
  • Bake in a pre-heated oven at 175C for 20-25 mins.
