Cupcake Fruit Bowl

Eating fruit was never tastier! All it takes is a basic round tip to make these cherries, grapes, apples and pears – even beginners will be successful! Inside, there’s a secret ingredient: avocado (also a fruit) accentuated with a perky trio of citrus flavors.

Each serves 1.

Step 1: Prepare Cupcakes

Line muffin pan with baking cups. Fill 3/4 full with Citrus Avocado Cupcake batter. Bake 18-20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely before decorating.
