Apple Pie Whoopie

A truly irresistible combination of apples and spices make this whoopie an all-time family favourite.

Ingredients…

• 115g (4oz) soft unsalted (sweet) butter

• 200g (7oz) soft brown sugar

• 1 large (US extra large) egg

• 2.5ml (¹⁄₂ tsp) vanilla extract

• 225g (8oz) apple sauce

• 5ml (1 tsp) baking powder

• 5ml (1 tsp) cinnamon

• 1.25ml (¹⁄₄ tsp) ground cloves

• 190g (6³⁄₄oz) plain (all-purpose) flour

1 Preheat the oven to 180ºC (350ºF/Gas 4). Grease two whoopie pie tins with a little softened butter.

2 Sift together the flour, cinnamon, cloves and bicarbonate of soda and set aside.

3 In a separate bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy using an electric whisk or freestanding mixer.

4 Add the egg and vanilla and beat until well combined.

5 Fold in half the flour mixture, followed by half the apple sauce. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

6 Drop 1¹⁄₂ tbsp or a level small ice cream scoopful of batter into each well of the tins.

7 Bake for approximately 12–14 minutes or until the whoopies feel just firm to the touch. Allow to cool in the tins for five minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Hot to Trot…

These whoopies are best eaten warm – nobody can resist them long enough to let them cool down anyway!
