Mincemeat Muffins
Makes 12 muffins
1/2 cup pecans
1 apple
1 large egg
3/4 cup apple juice
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 1/3 cups bottled mincemeat
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup granulated sugar
For glaze
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
3 to 4 teaspoons apple juice
Preheat oven to 400°F and grease twelve 1/2-cup muffin cups.
Finely chop pecans. Peel apple and cut into 1/4-inch dice. In a bowl
whisk together egg, juice, and oil and stir in mincemeat and apple.
Into a large bowl sift together flour, baking powder, and cinnamon
and whisk in sugar. Add mincemeat mixture and pecans and stir batter
until just combined. Divide batter among muffin cups and bake in
middle of oven 20 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Turn
muffins out onto a rack and cool 5 minutes.
While muffins are cooling, make glaze:
In a small bowl whisk together confectioners' sugar, cinnamon, and 3
teaspoons juice until smooth, adding enough of remaining teaspoon if
necessary to make a spreadable glaze.
Spread glaze over tops of warm muffins. Serve muffins warm or at room
temperature. Muffins may be made 3 days ahead and kept in an airtight
container at room temperature.
