Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large egg whites, room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup whole milk, room temperature
- Optional: white frosting and sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Beat in egg whites one at a time, then add vanilla extract.
- Alternate adding the dry ingredients and milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined — do not overmix.
- Divide batter evenly among cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
- Frost with your favorite white frosting and decorate as desired.
Notes
- Room temperature ingredients help create a fluffy, even texture.
- Don’t overmix the batter to keep cupcakes light and tender.
- These pair well with buttercream or whipped cream frosting.
