Party
Pupcakes1 large apple
1 1/2 cups wheat flour
1/4 cup oatmeal
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons
honey 2 eggs
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
For the Frosting
8 oz
Neufchatel Cheese (lowfat cream cheese)
2 tablespoons plain yogurt
2 tablespoons
honey
2-3 tablespoons flour
chopped walnuts
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 ° F (200 ° C). Grease muffin tins. Core, slice
and mince the apple (use a food processor if you have one). Set aside. In a large
bowl, mix together flour, oatmeal, baking powder, and baking soda. In a medium
bowl, blend together the yogurt, water, oil, honey, and eggs, then stir in the
apple and cheese. Add to the flour mixture and stir until mixed. Spoon
into the muffin tins, filling each cup about three-quarters full. Bake for about
20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Let rest in the muffin tins for a few minutes, then remove and set aside to cool.
For the frosting, combine the Neufchatel cheese (at room temperature),
honey, and yogurt until smooth. Add enough flour to thicken the frosting to a
good spreading consistency. Frost the pupcakes, sprinkle them with chopped walnuts,
and you're ready for a doggone good party! Makes 16-18 pupcakes. If you
prefer a single-layer cake, spoon the batter into a sheet pan and bake for an
extra 15-20 minutes (or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes
out clean). Let the cake cool, then frost and decorate with walnuts.
