Vanilla cupcakes are a classic treat that never goes out of style. Perfect for any occasion from birthdays to casual get-togethers, these basic vanilla cupcakes are light, fluffy, and delicious. The following recipe is simple and straightforward, making it perfect for both beginner and experienced bakers alike.
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting to mix the batter to achieve a smooth and even consistency.
- Cream the butter and sugar thoroughly until the mixture is light and fluffy, as this will help incorporate air into the batter, creating a lighter cupcake.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to fully integrate them into the batter.
- Sift the self-raising flour to remove any lumps and to aerate it, which helps to achieve a fluffier texture.
- Alternate adding the flour and milk to the batter, starting and ending with the flour. This helps maintain the batter's structure.
- Do not overmix the batter once the flour is added, as overmixing can make the cupcakes dense and tough.
- Use an ice cream scoop to evenly distribute the batter into cupcake liners for uniform-sized cupcakes.
- Preheat the oven fully before baking to ensure even cooking.
