Yield Makes 18

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
8 ounces (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups packed light-brown sugar
4 large eggs
Apple-Cider Applesauce or 1 1/2 cups store-bought applesauce
1 cup toasted pecans, chopped
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin and a 6-cup tin with paper liners. Sift flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cloves together into a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Put 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, the granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup brown sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cream on medium speed until smooth, about 3 minutes. Mix in eggs, one at a time. On low speed, mix in applesauce and then flour mixture. Stir in nuts by hand.
  • Divide batter among muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full. Bake until a cake tester inserted in centers comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely in tins on a wire rack.
  • Meanwhile, in the clean bowl of electric mixer, mix cream cheese with remaining 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter and 1 cup brown sugar on medium speed until smooth. Spread cream-cheese frosting on muffins.

These muffins were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used less sugar.

I'm not a big fan of applesauce, but I actually really liked these muffins. They were moist and flavorful, and the applesauce flavor was subtle.

These muffins were just okay. They were a little dry and not very flavorful. I think I would have liked them better if I had added some cinnamon or nutmeg.
