Ingredients

Egg Yolk Batter:

  • 2 eggs
  • 28g cooking oil
  • 38ml milk
  • 40g cake flour

Meringue:

  • 2 egg whites
  • 30g white sugar
  • A few drops of lemon juice or white vinegar

Instructions

  1. Separate the egg whites and yolks. Chill the egg whites in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to stabilize them.
  2. Mix the oil and milk. Stir until emulsified.
  3. Sift in the flour. Stir well. Add the egg yolks and mix until smooth.
  4. Add lemon juice to the egg whites. Gradually add the sugar in three batches, beating until stiff peaks form.
  5. Fold a small amount of the meringue into the egg yolk batter. Gently fold this mixture back into the remaining meringue until evenly combined.
  6. Pour the batter into a piping bag. Pipe the batter into lined muffin pan, filling them 80% full.
  7. Preheat the oven to 130°C (266°F). Bake for 30 minutes. Increase the temperature to 140°C (284°F) and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
  8. After baking, give the cupcakes a light shake twice and place them upside down on a cooling rack.
  9. Decorate as desired or enjoy plain.

Notes

  • Ensure egg whites are at room temperature for best results.
  • Do not overmix the batter to maintain the cupcakes’ light texture.
