The advice of the editorial board Such cupcakes are great to cook for breakfast. It is best to do this just before the whole family sits down at the table. In chocolate or vanilla muffin, you can add pieces of chocolate, nuts, dried fruits or berries. For example, frozen currants or cherries. Fingers are good!

If you have silicone molds, feel free to bake cupcakes in them. But remember, in the microwave, the dough rises a lot. So do not fill the forms more than half. By the way, cupcakes in a cup can be prepared in different ways. On our website there is a great article with a recipe for a banana-based muffin.



And if you do not have a microwave, this dough is suitable for baking in an ordinary oven. Cook it in the same proportions. As for baking time, I think 10 minutes at 180 degrees will be enough. But it is better to navigate by a dry sword.

Tell me, have you ever made a cupcake in a cup? Maybe you have your own recipe. Boldly share them in the comments!
