- With a cookie cutter, make rounds about 3 cm larger than the size of each cupcake.
- Place each circle of dough inside the cavities of the mold, press gently with your fingers to adhere and cover the entire base of the mold.
- Fill each cavity with the applesauce and place a generous spoonful of the crumbs that you prepared earlier.
- Bake the cupcakes for approximately 20 minutes, when the crumbs are golden brown, remove from the oven and let cool.
- I particularly like to eat apple pie cupcakes warm and they are easy to unmold hot. So, I unmold it while it's still warm and serve it with whipped cream and caramel syrup.
