It is desirable to use all products at room temperature, and the oil in any case must be left for about half an hour outside the refrigerator so that it becomes soft.
How to make a cake with raisins: Separate egg yolks from proteins. The usual technology for making muffins is easier: do not separate the yolks from the proteins, but immediately add whole eggs one at a time. Rinse the raisins. If desired, you can soak raisins in cognac or liqueur.
Combine the softened butter (or margarine), sugar and vanilla sugar.
Grind well to a lush mass. (If oil is used, the mixture can be beaten with a mixer. )
Continue to rub (beat), add yolks one at a time.
The dough is almost done.
Now sift and add flour. Mix the dough until uniform. In a separate dish (you can in a tablespoon), mix soda with lemon juice (extinguish) and add it to the dough. (Baking powder can be added instead of slaked soda. )
Sprinkle the raisins with a little flour and shake slightly so that the berries are covered with flour on all sides (this is necessary for an even distribution of raisins in the muffin).
Add raisins to the dough.
In a clean, dry dish, beat the whites to a stable foam.
Introduce whipped proteins into the dough. First, a small part, gently mixing from bottom to top (better with a soft shoulder blade). Then add the remaining proteins and gently mix the dough until homogeneous.
The dough is ready to bake.
Turn on the oven, heat it to 175-180 degrees. Silicone muffins can not be lubricated (it is recommended to lubricate them only when first used), and other forms can be lubricated with butter or margarine. Put the dough in one large or several small muffins, filling no more than 3/4 of the volume. Line the surface with a wet spoon.
Place the molds in a preheated oven. Baking time depends on the size of the muffins. In silicone molds with a diameter of about 9 cm, muffins are baked for about 45-50 minutes. Readiness can be checked by rudeness or a wooden stick. Cool the ready-made cupcakes on a grill.
Garnish the cupcake the easiest by sprinkling icing sugar through a strainer (for uniformity).
"For beauty" on muffins - currant berries and mint leaves. Cupcakes in oil are tender, juicier, and loose on margarine. Margarine, by the way, can be put a little more than oils.
These are the butter dough raisins.
And these are margarine dough raisins - the taste is a little different, but it also turned out great.
