Ingredients for 10 muffins:
- 2 eggs
- 90 g of sugar (for the dough and 40 for the topping)
- 100 g of virgin olive oil
- 90 g of flour
- 7 g chemical yeast
- a pinch of salt
Preparación:
- Beat the eggs with the sugar on speed 3, 2 minutes. While beating the eggs and without stopping, open the middle cap halfway and add the oil.
- Sift the flour and yeast with a strainer and add them to the dough along with the salt.
- Grind at speed 4, 2 minutes.
- Fill cupcake capsules up to about 2/3 full.
- Sprinkle the surface with sugar as topping.
- Cook in the preheated oven for 12 minutes at 220ºC.
Tips…
- If you put the cupcake capsules inside a rigid mold, they will not deform.
- With this same dough you can make sponge sheets:
- Roll out the dough on a tray on baking paper or a silicone sheet.
- Bake it in the preheated oven for about 8 minutes at 200 degrees. The time may vary depending on the size of the tray (the smaller the tray, the thicker the dough and you would have to increase the time).
- You can add scents to the dough such as lemon or orange peel, cocoa powder, vanilla, cinnamon … You can also incorporate dried fruits such as raisins. In this case, it is convenient that you hydrate them – in water, rum or brandy – and coat them with a little flour so that they do not stay at the bottom of the cupcakes.
- Try placing a base of dough in a cupcake capsule. Add a tablespoon of jam or a piece of chocolate topping. Cover with dough to fill 3/4 of the capsule and bake.
