Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Whole milk
- 1 Egg white
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with 4 cupcake liners.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the unsalted butter to the dry ingredients and use a fork or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, whole milk, egg white, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Divide the batter evenly among the 4 cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 14-16 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
Let the cupcakes cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving or frosting.
