    Eggless Orange Cupcakes Recipe

    This is one cupcake which i wanted to bake for quite a long time. There is something in the citrus of orange which makes the cake or cupcakes which they get into taste soft and yummy. This is an eggless version and it is pretty healthy as well.

    About this Recipe

    A cupcake is a small cake that serves one person and is baked in a small thin paper or aluminium cup. Frosting and other cake decorations, such as fruit and candy, may be used, as with larger cakes.

    What is the history behind cupcakes?

    While cake has been around in some form or another since ancient times, cupcakes first appeared in America. The first reference to a cake to be baked in small cups; rather than as a layer cake, is thought to have appeared in Amelia Simmons; American Cookery in 1796.

    What happens if you make a cake without eggs?

    A cake made without eggs or any other substitute will have a denser texture. Because eggs are a binder, it will be more fragile. The texture will also be coarser because eggs contain more fat, resulting in a smoother batter.

    This cupcakes is made with oil, wheat flour so it is so healthy. You can skip the frosting part of the cupcakes and enjoy it as a plain cupcake with a dusting of icing sugar.

    Ingredients for Orange Cupcakes

    • Wheat Flour / Atta - 1 cup
    • Corn flour / Corn Starch  - 1 tblspn
    • Baking Powder - ½ tsp
    • Baking Soda / Cooking Soda - ½ tsp
    • Orange Zest - 1 tblspn
    • Oil - ¼ cup
    • Fresh Orange Juice - 1 cup
    • Sugar - ½ cup
    • Orange Buttercream Frosting as needed (RECIPE HERE)
    • Sprinkles as needed
     

    Corn flour / Corn Starch :

    It functions as a thickening agent. Corn starch is also combined with flour in baking formulas to increase crumb strength while also increasing grain tenderness.

    Baking Powder

    Baking powder is used to increase the volume of baked goods and lighten their texture. It works by releasing carbon dioxide gas into a batter or dough via an acid–base reaction, which causes bubbles in the wet mixture to expand and thus leaven the mixture.

    Orange Zest :

    It gives recipes a citrusy, tangy flavour. Its delicious in salad dressings like our Citrus Salad Dressing and baked goods like our Orange Fennel Cake.

    I made an orange frosting for this and it took this simple cupcakes to the next level.

    How to Make Orange Cupcakes

    1. Preheat oven to 180 degree C. Line muffin tray with cupcake wrappers. Set aside.
    2. In a sifter, take flour, baking soda, baking powder and cornflour. Sieve well.
    3. Take oil, sugar, orange zest, orange juice in a bowl and mix well till sugar is melted.
    4. Add in the sifted flour and mix well.
    5. Use an ice cream scoop to scoop the batter into the tray. Bake for 20 to 25 mins or insert a toothpick, if it comes clean then the cake is done.
    6. Remove it and cool it completely.
    7. Now decorate it with frosting.
    8. Top with sprinkles. Serve.

      @AnonymousThis cake is so moist, you need wrapper. You can cut small pieces of parchment and line it in the cupcake tray
