You probably remember these from your childhood or from your kid's kid-hood. They're delicious and when you make them at home, you control the sugar, and even give them a little boost of nutrition… for a candy, at least. This is a supremely easy-to-make confection, with only three natural ingredients. No chemicals, no kidding!

Beat in eggs and yogurt until blended. Alternately fold in flour mixture and apple butter, beginning and ending with flour. Fold in the chopped apples. Fill cupcake liners ¾ full. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until cupcakes bounce back when touched.
