Wskazówki

MUFFIN BATTER

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a muffin pan with muffin liners.

Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, cornstarch and cinnamon.

In a separate bowl, mix butter, avocado oil, granulated sugar and brown sugar until combined.

Add eggs and egg white one at a time, mixing after each addition.

Add vanilla, milk and Greek yogurt. Mix until smooth.

Gradually add the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Do not overmix.

CARAMELIZED APPLES

Peel, core and thinly slice the apples, about 2–3 mm thick.

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.

Add apples, brown sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice.

Cook until the apples soften and become glossy and caramelized, but still hold their shape.

Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.

Let cool slightly.

CHEESECAKE FILLING

Beat cream cheese until completely smooth.

Add honey, egg yolk, heavy cream, vanilla and cornstarch.

Mix until smooth and fully incorporated.

Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a round tip.

CRUMBLE

Combine flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt.

Add cold cubed butter.

Use your fingers or a fork to work the butter into the dry ingredients until small and medium crumbs form.

Keep chilled until ready to use.

ASSEMBLY

Fill each muffin liner about ⅔ full with the muffin batter.

Arrange several slices of caramelized apple over the surface.

Insert the piping tip into the center of the batter.

Pipe the cheesecake filling into the center while slowly pulling the tip upward.

Pipe just enough so a small amount of cheesecake filling remains visible on top.

Sprinkle with cinnamon crumble.

Bake at 350°F for 20–25 minutes, or until golden and the center is set.

Let cool in the pan for 5–10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
