  5. Add 2 tablespoons of water at this point if the batter is too thick. Do not overmix the batter.
  6. Line a muffin tray and fill the cupcake liners with batter. Fill only up to ¾ of the batter as the cupcakes will rise while baking.
  7. Bake the cupcakes in a preheated oven at 350F/180C for 12-15 minutes or till a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Remove from oven, transfer to a wire rack and let the cupcakes cool completely.

Notes:

  • If you have buttermilk on hand then you can use that instead of using the milk+vinegar mixture.
