Here’s what you’ll need to whip up these delicious cupcakes:
Ingredients:
- 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 and 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup chopped fresh strawberries
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set it aside for later.
- In another bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Now, alternate adding the flour mixture and the buttermilk to the wet ingredients, starting and ending with the flour. Mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chopped strawberries until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 of the way full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Feel free to top them off with your favorite frosting or some whipped cream! Enjoy!
