Tequila Sunrise Cupcakes
Why I Love This Recipe
Ingredients You'll Need
For the cupcakes:
1/4 cup orange juice (fresh, if possible)
2 tsp orange zest
1 cup soy milk (plain or vanilla)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tsp tequila
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup sugar
1 1/3 cup all purpose flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
Frosting (recipe below)
Directions
Preheat oven to 350F. Fill a 12-cup muffin tin with liners. In a large bowl, mix together orange juice, orange zest, soy milk, oil, tequila, vanilla and sugar.
In a small bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add to orange mixture and stir until just combined. Divide evenly into muffin tins.
Bake for 20-24 minutes, until a tester comes out clean and the cakes spring back when lightly pressed. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
