Materials

  • - **4 eggs**
  • - **200 grams sugar**
  • - **250 ml milk**
  • - **65 ml oil**
  • - **2 teaspoons baking powder**
  • - **½ teaspoon salt**
  • - **300 grams cake flour**

Instructions

Preheat and Prepare:

  • - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners or lightly grease the cups.

Mix Wet Ingredients:

  • - In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until they are light and frothy. Gradually add the sugar and continue beating until the mixture is thick and pale.
  • - Add the milk and oil to the egg mixture, and mix until well combined.

Combine Dry Ingredients:

  • - In a separate bowl, sift together the cake flour, baking powder, and salt.

Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:

  • - Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in dense cupcakes.

Fill and Bake:

  • - Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
  • - Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.

Cool and Frost:

  • - Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Frost with your favorite vanilla buttercream or any desired frosting once cooled.
