apple and ginger muffins with cyber frosting
Good morning my friends! Today we will show you how to bake a tasty Welsh apple ginger muffin. The Ginger apple muffin is a traditional Welsh recipe originally made for travelling ironworkers in the valleys of South Wales. Our recipe here is a modern twist on the classic recipe, turning it into cupcakes with the addition of Welsh cider in the frosted topping. This recipe also includes wholemeal flour, which was a common cereal crop in the Iron Age and experienced a revival in the last decade. This, plus the crunchy demerara sugar, the grated apples (which we have left unpeeled for added flavour and texture) and the flavoursome pieces of stem ginger make a rather fantastic savoury-sweet muffin perfect for breakfast or a mid-morning/afternoon snack.
