If you want to impress your family and friends this season, consider making these delicious apple cider cupcakes. This is not your typical Thanksgiving dessert but will be a great addition! Keep in mind; this is not a fluffy and cake light cupcake; it has the consistency of a muffin. You will begin by mixing butter and sugar in a bowl, adding eggs and vanilla until it is fully mixed. Whisk together all your dry ingredients in a separate bowl, add the apple cider and the mixture of dry ingredients, alternating between the two, slowly incorporating them into the butter/sugar/egg mixture. Place it in your 12.7 QT Air Fryer Oven for 8 minutes, or until the toothpick comes out clean.
