Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to knead the dough for cupcakes? Prepare the indicated products. The main condition for a successful result is that all products must be at room temperature. Sift the flour first to saturate it with oxygen. Thanks to this, the cupcakes will turn out more tender and fluffy. Rinse the orange well, dry it and grate the zest from it. Orange zest can be replaced with lemon zest. Prepare a muffin pan. Turn on the oven to preheat to 170 degrees.

Step 2

Step 2
In a deep bowl, beat softened butter with salt, sugar and vanilla sugar into a fluffy mass. The sugar should almost dissolve, so you can use fine sugar or powdered sugar to speed up the process.

Step 3

Step 3
Without stopping beating, add one egg at a time, mixing the dough thoroughly each time.

Step 4

Step 4
Add orange zest to the dough and mix thoroughly.

Step 5

Step 5
Add flour in small portions and mix everything thoroughly each time. Beat the dough until all the flour has been added. The cake batter is ready.

Step 6

Step 6
To make small muffins, you can use paper capsules (without them, grease the pan with oil). Pour the finished dough into the molds, filling them 2/3 full. For a large cake, line the pan with baking paper or grease with vegetable oil.

Step 7

Step 7
Bake the cupcakes in the preheated oven for 20 — 25 minutes. Check doneness with a wooden skewer — it should come out dry from the middle of the cake. Bake a large cake for 60 — 80 minutes. Do not open the oven for the first 20-30 minutes.
