Cooking Steps

Prep and cook apples
1
  • Peel, core, then cut apple into 1/4-inch pieces. 
  • Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) white sugar to a medium bowl. Set aside in the fridge. (NOTE: This is for your whipped cream in step 5.)
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
  • When hot, add apples, half the cinnamon and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Cook, stirring often, until apples are tender-crisp, 3-4 min.  
  • Divide apples between 3 (6) large microwavable safe mugs (approx. 350 ml each). Set aside. 
Prep batter
2
  • Add breakfast baking mix, pumpkin pie spice mix, 4 tbsp (8 tbsp) white sugar, 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt and remaining cinnamon to a large bowl. Whisk to combine. 
  • Add milk, then whisk to combine. Set aside.  
Make butterscotch
3
  • Reheat the same large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter, then brown sugar and remaining white sugar. Cook, stirring often, until sugar is dissolved, 4-5 min. 
  • Slowly add half the cream, whisking until fully combined. 
  • Reduce heat to medium and cook, whisking often, until thickened, 2-3 min. Set aside. 
Microwave mug cakes
4
  • Divide cake batter between mugs. 
  • Transfer all 3 mug cakes to the microwave. Cook on low until cakes puff up and are cooked through, 4-5 min. (NOTE: Cook in two batches for 4 ppl.) (TIP: If mug cakes start to bubble over, stop the microwave and wait for the cake batter to settle. Then restart with the remaining time left.)
  • Set aside to cool slightly, 1-2 min.
Make whipped cream and serve
5
  • Meanwhile, add the remaining cream to the medium bowl with the reserved white sugar.
  • Using an electric mixer or whisk, whip until stiff peaks form, 2-3 min. 
  • Make a hole, roughly 1-inch deep, with a spoon in the top of each mug cake. Pour some of butterscotch sauce into the hole. 
  • Dollop with whipped cream and drizzle any remaining butterscotch over top.
