As with reduced sugar cakes I have blogged before about gluten free cakes however I have never included a recipe. Each time I go to make a new batch I have to search through all my recipe papers (which need organising!) and hope I find the right one to use!
I have used this recipe for both cupcakes and cakes and I have found it to produce a lovely light cake, especially the cupcakes and the last batch I made were lovely – best batch to date!
I found this recipe at www.allrecipes.co.uk click the link to visit the page.
You will need :-
150g margarine
150g caster sugar
2 drops of vanilla essence
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder (ensure it is gluten free, I use Dr Oetker)
150g gluten free self-raising flour
3 tablespoons milk.
Method:-
Cream the margarine and sugar until light and fluffy
Beat in the eggs and vanilla
Fold in the flour and baking powder, then add the milk.
It may seem a little sloppy but this is fine.
Spread out accross 10 cupcake cases or place in small cake tin and bake at 190 degrees C for around 15 minutes or longer if in a cake tin. I decorated with a small simple swirl of vanilla frosting.
A massive improvement since the first one! These cupcakes really tasted fab
