Prune Cupcakes
Remember I baked a Prune Cheesecake three months ago? And this time I used Prune again to bake into Cupcakes for afternoon tea and it was soft and moist with rum added in it that my family really enjoyed very much.
Here is the recipe100g Butter – melted
3 Large eggs
3 Large eggs
175g Plain flour – sifted
1 tsp Baking powder
180g Prunes – cut to small pieces
1 tbsp Rum compound or liqueur
1 tsp Vanilla extract
125g Brown sugar
1 tsp Baking soda
50ml Fresh milk
Methods:
- Beat prunes, sugar, rum compound and baking soda till thick and sticky then slowly add in 50ml milk, mix well.
- Add in eggs one at a time and mix well.
- Then use hand whisk to mix in the sifted flour and baking powder.
- Lastly add in melted butter and mix well.
- Pour into paper cups about 3/4 full and decorate with a prune (flatten) on top.
- Bake in preheated oven at 180C for about 25 mins.
- Leave cake to cool and dust some icing sugar or snow powder on top.
- Enjoy this Prune Cupcake with a cup of hot coffee.

I have never eaten prune cakes, but I love snacking prunes, so I can imagine that I would love prune cupcakes too…!:)
sofa ? i like this kind of cup cake too.
prunes are so underused. I am making a recipe today with prunes and red vine. Fantastic little cups!
Hey Ann,
I've never tried a prune cupcake before, very interesting. And did you say rum? I think you said the magic word for me ;-). I love that cute cupcake holder too.
Interesting prune cup cakes – very curious how it taste like. I have tried prune kueh lapis but not any other cakes with prunes.
Thank you Min. Have a try, this is very nice.
The prune cupcakes looks so fluffy and nicely rised. Love it !:) Thanks.
Ann, I used to eat prunes for snack when I still worked at the kichen. But never eat prune cupcakes

Prunes are so underrated, I love them! They're especially good with chocolate.

Prune cupcakes are a great idea! Would love to try!
You know at first glance those prunes almost look like a little dollop of chocolate frosting haha. Despite my confusion, I'd love to get a taste of this fruity treat now that I know it's true identity.
I have never tried prune in cakes but it must be moist and delicious. Those are cute cupcake liners ๐

Your cupcakes look delicious, I haven't tried any recipes with prunes before. Bookmark this and will bake as soon as I got my prunes ready.
