Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 125 grams All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 75 milliliters Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 150 milliliters Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tray with paper cupcake liners.
In a medium-sized bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Stir in the unsweetened almond milk and apple cider vinegar into the wet ingredients. Mix until incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as this may result in dense cakes.
Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the fairy cakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve these dairy-free fairy cakes plain or top them with your favorite dairy-free frosting or fresh fruits.
