5th cake baked by The Home Bakers, another great recipe by Lou Seibert Pappas. This regular baking event is organized by Joyce of Kitchen Flavours with Emily from Emily’s Cooking (Makan 2) Foray being the host this time.
Having seen Alice of I love I Cook I Bake added plain yoghurt which I think that was an marvellous idea. I incorporated buttermilk ( 3tbsp fresh milk + 2tsp lemon juice – mix and let it stand for 5-10 mins ) to the 6 cupcakes recipe posted by Mich of Piece of Cake.
Please visit our host, Emily for the full recipe.
I made them into cupcakes to save up some troubles slicing them since the sides are filled with almond flakes. This cake is at its prime when they are freshly baked. The first bite into the cake is the crunchy almond flakes with the crispy rim, and then follow by the soft cake texture.
Great with a cup of coffee..
Hi Elieen, your cupcakes look gorgeous!! I took your suggestion of adding buttermilk and the cake come out nice and moist. Thanks.
Glad to hear that you like it.
