Apple Cheesecake Duffin Recipe

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 360°F. Place the frozen pastry on a parchment-paper-lined baking tray and allow it to thaw for 10-15 minutes.
2. Once the pastry is pliable, place the pasty over the muffin cup and push the center inward to the bottom.
3. Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden brown.
4. Remove from oven and let pastry cool before decorating.
5. A small hole will form within the center of the duffin. Fill the inside with whipped cream cheese frosting, and then fill with apple compote.
6. Drizzle white icing on top (included in case).
7. Garnish with seasonal granola.

Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting

1. Gather the bowl of your stand mixer and add heavy cream. Beat until stiff peaks form. If using a stand mixer, transfer the whipped cream to another bowl and set aside.
2. In a second large bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer, combine softened cream cheese, sifted powdered sugar, corn starch (if using), and vanilla extract. Beat until well-mixed and smooth, scraping the sides of the bowl with a silicone spatula as needed.
3. Use a spatula to fold whipped cream and yogurt into the cream cheese mixture, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
4. Transfer whipped cream cheese in piping bag when finished.
