Desserts Recipe « Maple Cupcakes

I came up with this maple cupcake recipe a couple of years ago. They taste great and are not too sweet!

Ingredients

• 1 cup maple syrup
• 5 tablespoons margarine
• 1 large egg
• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup whole wheat flour
• 2.25 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
• 0.5 cup milk

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 12-cup muffin tins.
2. Beat maple syrup and margarine together in a large bowl until well mixed and creamy. Mix in egg until combined.
3. Combine all-purpose and whole wheat flours, baking powder, nutmeg, salt, and ginger in a small bowl. Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in batches, alternating with the milk, beating batter briefly after each addition. Fill the prepared muffin cups 3/4 full with batter.
4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean, 20 to 30 minutes.
