- Hey, y'all it's Jamie Dean here today.
0:02
And I am back in my mama's kitchen.
0:04
I'm sharing a recipe with y'all of it.
0:06
Anytime we have school parties
0:07
this is the go to cupcake that I use.
0:11
It's not a traditional cupcake.
0:12
It's got good things in it.
0:14
And then it's got delicious things in it too.
0:16
Listen, you're watching mom's YouTube channel today.
0:18
My kids love YouTube stuff.
0:20
They watch all those kids and they always say
0:22
"like, subscribe, unsubscribe, resubscribe"
0:26
So I don't know all that stuff, I'm asking you
0:28
if you would subscribe to mom's YouTube channel
0:30
that way you won't miss any of her tours, tips,
0:33
or any of the delicious recipes that we're doing
0:35
including the one that we're doing today.
0:37
These are chocolate chip granola blueberry cupcakes.
0:43
Now the first thing that we're gonna start with y'all
0:45
is I've got my flour, my baking soda and my baking powder.
0:49
We've mixed our dry ingredients up
0:51
and we're gonna break out old Mr. Mixer today.
0:57
and we're gonna add to that our sugar.
0:59
I'm not gonna do measurements
1:00
because I know that we will put measurements in for y'all.
1:06
There is always something that needs to be made
1:09
and shared with our kids classes.
1:11
And with nut allergies and things like that
1:13
you have to be so careful.
1:14
So this cupcake is one that doesn't have any nuts
1:17
in it that I really like.
1:19
Is there nuts in that granola?
1:21
There are no nuts in this recipe.
1:23
So this is the one that I like to use.
1:25
We've got our eggs and our sugar.
1:29
We're gonna beat these up until they're nice and mixed.
1:32
And now is here where some good flavors coming in.
1:35
Y'all let me get as spatula.
1:38
Okay y'all now, you know, when you think about a cupcake
1:40
lots of folks just use a cake mix
1:42
and then the they got the icing that's already ready.
1:44
You bake 'em you put a little bit on there.
1:46
We're going one extra step this time.
1:48
We're building layers of flavor.
1:51
Which is really separates some of the great recipes
1:53
from recipes that are just okay.
1:55
So look y'all, into this cupcake batter,
1:58
we're gonna add apple butter,
2:09
and every recipe at my mama's house calls for butter.
2:13
Now there's really nothing pleasant
2:15
about the sound of this mixer so trust me
2:18
when you come back all this will be mixed up
2:20
and you'll miss the noise.
2:21
All right y'all, I've got my syrup
2:23
my apple butter, and my real butter mixed in here.
2:25
Now we're gonna go add our flour,
2:28
our baking soda and our baking powder.
2:30
And my mama told me she's here this morning.
2:32
So just before she walked off,
2:34
she said the thing about cupcakes is
2:35
you don't want to over beat 'em.
2:37
So we're gonna incorporate this dry ingredients
2:40
until it's just folded in.
2:43
Okay y'all, this is a beautiful brown color.
2:45
Now we're gonna incorporate our milk.
2:57
I got all this mixed up.
2:59
Now we're gonna fold in our chocolate chips,
3:08
Now, if you do got nut allergies
3:10
or you wanna bring these into school
3:11
make sure you get the granola that doesn't have any nuts.
3:16
Okay. And we'll fold this in.
3:18
I'll scrape my sides really good.
3:22
Look at this hearty, this looks good.
3:24
This is kind of what my bowl of oatmeal looks like
3:29
I got oatmeal from my brother
3:32
and I never really liked it cause I don't like brown sugar.
3:35
I don't like really like sweet stuff that much.
3:38
But I sweeten mine with honey and put pecans and walnuts
3:42
and blueberries and bananas in it.
3:43
And I have figured out a way to make oatmeal delicious.
3:47
Oh, I'll do that recipe for y'all one morning.
3:50
This is so good for you.
3:51
So I've got all this incorporated in.
3:54
Now here comes the part,
3:56
don't get frustrated.
3:58
You just gotta take your time.
3:59
You see we got three, six, nine, 12 of these.
4:03
Now we want these to kind of be the same.
4:05
So I'm using an ice cream scoop
4:07
which is a good measuring tool.
4:09
I'm just gonna start with one scoop.
4:13
Oh, maybe a little bit smaller scoop.
4:18
And see how the right tool for the right job
4:21
can really change your chore.
4:24
This is the easiest thing to do cause it measures
4:27
and it cleans itself.
4:28
You can keep your fingers clean.
4:36
So if y'all want to, we're gonna take a little break here.
4:40
I'll get these in the oven.
4:41
When we come back, we'll be eating cupcakes.
4:46
When you're making your homemade whipped cream at the house,
4:49
once it starts to get peaks stop.
4:52
I learned the hard way you keep beating it
4:54
it's gonna break back down.
4:57
Start with a chill bowl, have one cup of heavy cream
5:00
and a third a cup of granulated sugar.
5:03
And you can make any dessert you find at the grocery store.
5:07
If you find it on the street, doesn't matter.
5:08
You put this on top of it
5:10
and it tastes like a delicious homemade dessert.
5:13
Homemade whipping cream is one of my favorite things.
5:16
So for today, I'm gonna put a little dollop of this on here.
5:21
Now, if you're carrying these to the school
5:22
or if you're gonna share 'em with people at your house
5:25
or at a party or something,
5:27
this will break down.
5:29
So you can use a traditional icing if you want one
5:32
or look how pretty it is, it doesn't need any icing at all.
5:36
Or if you're doing 'em at your house
5:37
for a party or something,
5:38
plop this on it at the last minute
5:41
and add a little bit of sweetness to your cupcake.
5:46
Thanks for tuning in today, y'all.
5:47
I'll see you around the kitchen.
