Notes

  • Storage
  • Storage
  • Fridge: Store in the fridge for up to 5 days. 
  • Freezer: Store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • Room Temperature Egg
  • Room Temperature Egg
  • It is important to use an egg that's been brought to room temperature. You can do this by taking the egg out of the fridge 30 minutes before, or you can fill a bowl with warm water, add the egg from the fridge and let it sit for 5-10 minutes to come up to temp. 
  • Weigh Ingredients
  • Weigh Ingredients
  • This is the best way to ensure that you get consistent results, every time. If you add too much flour you'll end up with dense cupcakes. Using a kitchen scale is the easiest way to ensure consistent results. If you don't have a scale, be sure to always spoon and level your flour. 
  • Don't skip aeration! 
  • Don't skip aeration!
