Ingredients
eggs
butter
caster sugar
self raising flour
vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4
Line a muffin tin with paper cases
Break the eggs into a bowl and weigh them
Add the same weight of butter, caster sugar and self raising flour
Add 1tsp of vanilla extract – I use 1tsp of vanilla for every 3 eggs
Mix well and spoon into the paper cases
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until lightly browned
Notes
As a guide, six eggs makes about 26 cupcakes for me, so three eggs should make a nice baker’s dozen. Happy Baking!
