Applesauce Cinnamon Pupcakes: A Delicious Treat for You and Your Best Friend!

Prepare to em"bark" on a culinary adventure with a muffin that promises to comfort the human taste buds with its delightful flavors and aromas. Picture warm, freshly baked muffins, straight out of the oven, tempting your senses with the sweet embrace of cinnamon and the rich, creamy allure of cream cheese frosting. It's a treat that speaks to the gourmand in all of us.

But what makes this muffin truly special is its unique quality—it's not only a scrumptious delight for us, but it's also safe to share a little bit of this culinary joy with your four-legged companion. The original recipe contained nutmeg, cloves, and vanilla and said it was pet safe but I’ve removed them out of caution.
