Yield 16 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon ground cardamom
½ teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups applesauce
1 ¼ cups brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup vegetable oil
8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
nonstick cooking spray, for greasing

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
  • Make the muffin batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt with a fork.
  • In a separate large bowl, combine the applesauce, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, and vegetable oil. Mix with a fork, then gradually incorporate the dry ingredients until the batter is thick and smooth.
  • Make the cheesecake filling: In a medium bowl, use a fork to mix together the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until fluffy and smooth.
  • Grease a 2 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
  • Scoop about ¼ cup (30 g) of muffin batter into each cup. Add a teaspoon of cheesecake filling to the center of each cup. Use a toothpick to swirl the cheesecake into the batter.
  • Bake for 18 minutes, or until the muffins are springy and lightly browned around the edges.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
  • Enjoy!

These muffins were a bit too dry for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I would add a little more liquid to the batter next time.

These muffins were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the walnuts with chopped dried apricots. The muffins were still delicious!
