Hey everyone. I don’t know about you, but at this time I just get in the baking mood! Anyone else? I decided to try a recipe I’ve never tried before and chose to make gingerbread cupcakes!
Ingredients
- 115g plain flour
- 2 tsp ground ginger
- 3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 3/4 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 4 tbsp milk
- 85g butter
- 70g soft dark brown sugar
- 2 tbsp black treacle (I used golden syrup)
- 2 medium free range eggs
- 1 tub buttercream icing (you can make your own but I couldn’t be doing with that!)
Method
- Preheat oven to 160° C and line your cupcake tray with your chosen cases
- Sift the flour, ground ginger and cinnamon together into a bowl
- In another bowl, mix the bicarbonate of soda in the milk until it is dissolved
- Using another bowl, place the butter and sugar and beat together until light and fluffy
- Into the butter mixture, beat in the treacle and mix in the eggs, then the flour mixture, and then the milk mixture.
- Spoon the mixture into the paper cases, place in the oven and cook for 20 minutes until golden and risen.
- Leave to cool and decorate how you wish!
Until next time.

This looks delicious! Is the little gingerbread on top just made up of buttercream icing? Also, is bicarbonate of soda just baking soda?
