Thanksgiving Leftovers Cupcakes Recipe

  • Cupcakes:
  • 1 2/3 cups cooked turkey
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 2/3 cups white sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Glaze:
  • 3 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 2 cups turkey gravy
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 30 muffin cups.
  2. Blend turkey in a food processor until pureed. Mix flour, white sugar, turkey, butter, canola oil, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt together in a large bowl until all batter is moistened. Pour batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling them about 2/3 full.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool muffins in the tins for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
  4. Mix confectioners' sugar and gravy together in a bowl until glaze is smooth. Spoon glaze onto cooled cupcakes.
