Lemon And Olive Oil Cupcake Recipes

LEMON-OLIVE OIL CUPCAKES WITH COCONUT WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• For the coconut whipped cream: Chill the bowl and whisk of a stand mixer in the freezer for about 10 minutes. If they are not very cold, the cream will not whip properly. Skim the solidified coconut cream from the chilled can of coconut milk and transfer the solids to the bowl of the stand mixer. Do not include any of the coconut water, even if you have to leave behind a little margin of coconut cream (even a little bit of coconut water can harm your results).
• Add the powdered sugar and whip for a few minutes until the mixture begins to stiffen and turn into whipped cream. Chill the whipped cream in a covered container in the refrigerator. It should firm up even more as it sits in the refrigerator for the next few hours or overnight.
• For the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two 12-cup muffin pans with 14 cupcake liners and spray the liners with cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil, maple syrup, lemon zest and juice, lemon extract and 3/4 cup water. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix.
• Fill the cupcake liners evenly with the batter. Bake for about 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the cupcakes comes out dry, with a few crumbs clinging to it. Rotate halfway through the baking time. Cool the cupcakes completely before unmolding.
• To serve: Top each cupcake with some coconut whipped cream. Garnish each cupcake with fresh berries, mint leaves and/or lemon zest.

STRAWBERRY LEMONADE OLIVE OIL CUPCAKES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the candied lemon: Preheat the oven to 200°F (95°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Thinly slice the lemon into rounds, about ⅛-¼-inch-thick, removing the seeds.
• In a medium shallow skillet, combine the water and granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves, 3-4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the lemon slices to the syrup, and simmer until the flesh of the lemons begins to turn translucent, about 15 minutes.
• Transfer the lemon slices to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until crisp. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
• Make the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 18 muffin tin cups with paper liners.
• Make the cupcakes: In a large bowl, sift or whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, salt, and baking powder.
• In a medium bowl, combine the butter, strawberry purée, and olive oil. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until lightened in color and fluffy.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on medium-low speed until just combined.
• In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites, milk, and red food coloring.
• Add the egg white mixture to the batter and mix on medium-low speed until smooth.
• Divide the batter between the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ of the way.
• Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• Make the lemon buttercream: In a large bowl, combine the butter, cream cheese, salt, vanilla, lemon juice, and powdered sugar. Mix with an electric hand mixer on low speed until smooth. Transfer to a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off or a piping bag fitted with a round tip.
• Pipe the buttercream on top of the cupcakes. Garnish with the candied lemon wheels and sliced strawberries.
• Enjoy!
