Sift together flour, baking powder, salt and spices. Set aside.
In a separate bowl (or mixer) cream together butter and sugar until fluffy. Then add eggs one at a time and mix until super-fluffy.
Stir in apple cider until well combined. The mix will loose all fluffiness and look lumpy this is normal.
Add the flour/spice mixture into the butter mixture and stir gently until barely combined. Dont over-mix.

15-20 minutes for muffin/cupcake pans
