Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake orange cupcakes? Measure out the required ingredients. Remove the butter from the refrigerator in advance so that it softens at room temperature. Choose a large, juicy, sweet orange.

Step 2

Step 2
Mix flour with baking powder and sift into a large, wide bowl. Sifting will saturate the flour with oxygen, and the baked goods will be more fluffy.

Step 3

Step 3
Wash the orange and dry it. Using a grater, remove the zest from the orange (just the thin orange layer). Squeeze the juice out of the orange. You can do this using a citrus juicer or manually. I got 65 ml of juice.

Step 4

Step 4
Combine soft butter with sugar and vanilla sugar. Vanillin can be used instead of vanilla sugar.

Step 5

Step 5
Beat everything with a mixer until a fluffy, light mass.

Step 6

Step 6
Beat the eggs into the butter mixture, one at a time, beating well after each.

Step 7

Step 7
Add each subsequent egg only after the previous one is completely mixed into the resulting mass.

Step 8

Step 8
Add orange zest and juice and mix well.

Step 9

Step 9
Add the flour sifted with baking powder and mix thoroughly until the lumps disappear.

Step 10

Step 10
The dough is viscous, homogeneous, with the consistency of thick sour cream.

Step 11

Step 11
Divide the batter into muffin tins. Fill the pans 2/3 full as the cupcakes will rise during baking.

Step 12

Step 12
Bake orange muffins in an oven preheated to 180C for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Check readiness with a wooden skewer. If it comes out dry from the middle of the cake, the cake is ready. Cooking time may vary as it depends on the operating characteristics of your oven. I made 12 small cupcakes.

Step 13

Step 13
Cool the cupcakes and serve. If desired, you can dust the cupcakes with powdered sugar before serving. Bon appetit!
