Directions
STEP 1
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by lightly misting with cooking oil spray.
STEP 2
Chop apples and place with water in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until they can be mashed/stirred into a puree. Remove from heat and set aside.
STEP 3
In large mixing bowl, beat eggs. Add granulated sugar, milk, oil, lemon juice and 3/4 of the pureed apples and blend well. Add flour, baking powder and salt and mix well. Set aside.
STEP 4
In small bowl, combine the berries, icing sugar, melted margarine and remaining apple puree. Set aside.
STEP 5
Fill each muffin tin halfway with batter. Place a spoonful of the berry puree on each cupcake and top with remaining batter. Bake for about 18-20 minutes or until cupcakes spring back when touched.
