This is my favorite go-to vanilla bean cupcake recipe. It comes out perfect every time I make it!
- ½ cup unsalted butter-room temperature
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup warm milk (whole milk if you have it)
- ¾ cup self-rising flour, sifted
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour, sifted
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Place butter in a mixing bowl and beat for 1 minute until smooth.
- Add the sugar ⅓ at a time beating for a minute between each addition.
- The fluffier the butter and sugar, the fluffier the finished cupcake will be.
- Add vanilla paste.
- Add eggs one at a time mixing on med-low and for a minute in between additions.
- Once the eggs are mixed add in ½ of the flour mixture mixing on low until just incorporated.
- Add ½ of the milk and mix through (still on low)
- Add remaining flour and mix through.
- Finally add remaining milk and mix through.
- Do not over mix at this stage or your cupcakes will be tough.
- Place 12 cupcake wrappers in cupcake pan.
- Divide batter evenly between in cupcake pan. Use an ice cream scoop to make it easy.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes until cupcakes are just baked through.
- Let cupcakes completely cool before frosting (about an hour).
