Tips & Variations
- Apple choice: Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a flavor that contrasts nicely with the sweet caramel.
- Caramel drizzle: Warm the caramel sauce slightly before drizzling to make it easier to pour and achieve a smooth, glossy finish.
- Storage: Store cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days. Bring to room temperature before serving for best texture.
- Frosting option: For extra richness, pipe on a swirl of caramel or cinnamon cream cheese frosting before drizzling with caramel.
