Apple Cupcakes/Minicakes

Apple cupcake/mini cakes in the oven wee!! Finally FINALLY got to use all the apples. I loosely adapted the recipe from here, with alterations. I made 1 1/2 times the batter so that I could use all 6 apples. Am not sure what they will turn out like, but here's the recipe anyway! I'll update in a few minutes' time when the 1st batch is out.

Moist Apple Cake
6 apples, diced
1 1/2 tbsp cinnamon
4 1/2 tbsp sugar
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 cup canola oil + 2 tbsp butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/3 cup apple juice
2 tsp vanilla
3 eggs
1/2 cup milk
walnuts
  1. Mix the diced apples, cinnamon, 4 1/2 tbsp sugar together, make sure the apples are coated well.
  2. Mix the butter, oil, apple juice, sugar, vanilla together well. Add in eggs one at a time, incorporating into the batter.
  3. Add in the flour and baking powder.
  4. Because I thought the batter was too thick, I added the milk here haha.
  5. Add in the apples and walnuts and mix well.
  6. Bake at 180 degrees Celsius for about 25 minutes for cupcakes and 30 minutes for mini cakes.
  

Love the apple cinnamon sugar mix! 

Okay they are out of the oven and I ate 2 cupcakes already! Okay lah not bad. Definitely moist. And are they too sweet? Seems like it or maybe it's because of my sore throat haha. Should have added more walnuts though! 

Okay I think I have another 1 or 2 batches more to bake, so while waiting maybe I shall either vacuum or start preparing my lunch. Still don't know what to eat though.

Daiso Ramekins

Finally finally went to Daiso!! Wanted to go there for ages already! The first thing I came in, went to the cooking section. Found my ramekins! But they're not white. Oh wells. Can't be choosy for $2 ramekins! There were white ones, but super small white ramekins. And pie tarts too! Oooh so tempting! But I don't know when I'll make tarts hurhur. Actually I'm still thinking what I should bake using these ramekins. I remember having one of those "I wish I had ramekins right now" moments but I can't remember when. Maybe when I was making lava cake . Daiso is evil. It's so cheap you just feel like coming back again! Oh and did I mention there's a $2 weighing scale?! Measures up to a kilo but that's quite alright for baking isn't it! I mean, $2!! Dirt cheap lah. Not sure about the accuracy though. Didn't do much cleaning last weekend, very much spent lazing around at home just like what weekends should be like. I love being at ho...

Apam Balik

I love apam balik. The soft one, with lots of corn. So when @khairulaming posted this on his instagram, I bookmarked it. The recipe is not too much until you get sick of eating apam balik, but I do feel it needs some tweaks to get the pancake king version. But not bad for a first try. 2 cups flour 1/2 cup sugar 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp baking soda 2 tbsp melted butter 1 1/4 cups water 1 egg Additional butter for the pan I do feel it needs some salt, more sugar and I shouldn't have liberally made it so thick HAHA. The pan is important too, I kinda burnt some parts of the pancake. Got them bubbles!! This recipe made 2 large pancakes. Also, the filling needs to be sprinkled with sugar liberally (read: 3 tbsp or so), my first try wasn't enough. Pancake was soft even for the next few days after that (kept in the fridge then reheated in the microwave). Husband found it to be acceptable, but I was kinda not okay with it but ohwells. I can tweak it ...

Junior's Development

Nothing on food today. I wanna talk about Junior. He's growing so fast. In a few weeks' time, he'll turn 18 months. He's grown so much, so tall. Junior pretty much understands most of the things we say to him cos he knows when to shake his head if he doesn't want something. But he hasn't learnt to talk yet. I am kinda worried about that, but then Husband didn't talk till after two and that didn't stop him from being a debater. I'm trying to console myself by saying maybe he's a little late, that's all. Not like he has some deficiency or something. Junior keeps changing his preferences. Like now he likes panda bears (he loved Kungfu Panda on okto yesterday!), he doesn't want to solat but he aminkan doa . Things that aren't seasonal are his love for fruits, climbing, biting me (yes, it's been going on for the longest time), and the most sweetest thing, helping out with housework. He will pull the laundry basket out of our room a...
