Instructions

  1. Prepare the apple cider reduction by simmering 2 cups of non-alcoholic apple cider until reduced to about 0.5 cup. Let cool.

  4. In a mixer bowl, cream softened butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and mix in vanilla extract.
  5. Alternately add dry ingredients and buttermilk into the creamed mixture until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the cooled apple cider reduction.
  7. Fill muffin liners two-thirds full and bake for 18-22 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
  8. For frosting, beat together cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and additional apple cider reduction until smooth.
  9. Once cooled, frost the cupcakes generously and garnish as desired.
