Gluten-free Orange Cupcake Recipe
"An orange cupcake recipe that will take you back to your childhood! Made with fresh orange juice, this gluten-free dessert is the bomb! These delicious cupcakes have a delicate essence and are perfect afternoon snack idea. To have a perfect cupcake recipe, you just need to bring all the ingredients to room temperature. When you use ingredients straight out of the fridge, they don’t combine as smoothly with the dry and room temperature ingredients. It will result in clumps of ingredients sticking together."
NotesAnother great tip is to not over mix the batter. As soon as you can see that the ingredients are well-blended, then it is time for you to stop mixing. Over-mixing can deflate the mix. You want air bubbles to have a dome shape on the top of a cupcake. This will help your cupcakes, but is true of all cake batter.
