An apple a day keeps the doctor away! These cupcakes are topped with doughnuts, covered in red frosting and sprinkled with red sugar. Whether you are trying to keep the doctor away or sweet-talk your teacher these cupcakes are sure to do the trick! I made a vanilla cupcake, but you can use whatever flavor you’d like. An apple cinnamon spice cake would be great!
