Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 28 g cooking oil
- 38 ml milk
- 40 g cake flour
- 30 g white sugar
- A few drops of lemon juice or white vinegar (for stabilizing the egg whites)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Batter
- Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F).
- Separate the egg whites and egg yolks into two bowls.
- Add cooking oil and milk to the egg yolks, then whisk until smooth.
- Sift the cake flour into the yolk mixture and gently whisk until fully combined.
2. Make the Meringue
- Add a few drops of lemon juice or vinegar to the egg whites.
- Beat the egg whites on medium speed until foamy.
- Gradually add the white sugar, beating until stiff peaks form.
3. Combine
- Add one-third of the meringue to the yolk batter and fold gently.
- Add the remaining meringue and fold again until the mixture is smooth and airy.
Do not overmix, or the cupcakes will deflate.
4. Fill the Molds
- Line a mini cupcake tray with paper liners.
- Fill each mold about 70–80% full.
5. Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and springy.
- Let cool completely before removing.
