In vanilla muffins, the main thing, of course, is vanilla aroma. I use vanilla extract in the preparation. It can be replaced with a vanilla flavor, vanilla essence, vanilla pod (only seeds are used, and the pod itself can be stored in a glass jar with sugar, after a while you can get vanilla sugar at home) or vanilla sugar (10 g. )

How to make a vanilla cupcake? Prepare the products. Pre-remove all the ingredients from the fridge to keep them at room temperature. Pre-sift the flour. Milk is suitable for any fat content. Take the best quality oil, without vegetable additives. Instead of vanilla extract, a pinch of vanillin or a teaspoon of vanilla sugar will work. Instead of a large cupcake, I will bake small cupcakes.

Grab a deep bowl for the dough. When kneading, you can use a whisk or mixer, I use a whisk. Put the butter at room temperature and the sugar in a bowl. Mix everything until smooth lush.

Break the chicken eggs into a separate bowl one at a time to test them for freshness. Be sure to wash your eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria.

Add the sifted wheat flour mixed with baking powder in parts and mix everything thoroughly until the components are combined. It is important to sift through the flour to saturate it with oxygen. Then the pastry will turn out to be airy and will rise well when baking.

Pour the milk into the dough and mix well. The dough is ready. Prepare a suitable baking dish. Any heat-resistant form is suitable for this recipe. If you use a silicone mold, then you do not need to rinse it with oil or margarine. But it is better to lightly lubricate metal, ceramic or glassware with vegetable oil so that the pastries do not burn.

Pour dough into the selected muffin moulds, filling them 2/3 of the volume. You can use paper capsules, then you do not need to lubricate the molds. Place the cupcake tin in the oven preheated to 175 ° C for 25-30 minutes. Check the readiness of the muffins with a toothpick - it should come out of the middle of the muffin completely dry. If you are baking one large cupcake, then increase the baking time.

Remove the finished muffins from the oven and cool in molds. Then remove them warm and put them on a dish. You can sprinkle them with icing sugar. Serve such muffins with freshly brewed tea or a glass of milk. Enjoy your meal!
