Walnut Honey Chiffon Cupcakes 核桃蜂蜜杯子蛋糕
These Walnut Honey Chiffon Cupcakes are delicious, light and airy, tender crumb, full of honey and nutty fragrance. I’m glad that my new neighbour gave me a thumb’s up and I’m planning to bake this cake again in the next gathering. Just remember that you need to bang the cake tray together with the cakes on the counter top 2 to 3 times once they out of the oven, as this will prevent the cakes from too much shrinking.

- 1/2茶匙 发粉(泡打粉)
- 蛋白霜
- 200克 蛋白
- 1/2茶匙 柠檬汁或塔塔粉
- 80克 细砂糖
- 做法:
- 先取20克核桃用调理机打至粉状。剩下30克切小,备用。
- 在一个大碗里,将蛋黄,玉米油及蜂蜜一起拌匀,再加入橙汁拌匀。
- 续加入核桃粉拌匀,筛入分类拌匀成蛋黄糊备用。
- 蛋白霜 – 将蛋白及柠檬汁先打起泡后,细砂糖慢慢加入,续打至呈硬性发泡。
- 先取1/3量的蛋白霜和蛋黄糊拌匀后,再倒入剩余的蛋白霜,拌匀即可。
- 将面糊分别倒入12给纸杯中3/4满,撒上核桃粒。
- 送入预热烤箱摄氏165度,烘烤约25分钟或竹签扎入蛋糕内部不沾糊就可以了。
- 烤好后的蛋糕连烤盘在桌面大力的敲2-3下,敲出气泡(这样蛋糕烤好后就不会萎缩的太厉害了)。蛋糕待凉后即可享用。
- 食谱来至于常温蛋糕经典100 (食谱有稍微更改)
- 烤箱温度和烘烤时间务必根据自家烤箱来定
This looks so delicious!! trying out super soon.
How much butter to use if I would want to replace corn oil with butter
Hi Nancy, Sorry, I’m not sure about the volume of using butter. Anyway I think butter is heavier than oil, so if you really want to replace it with butter, then probably the texture will be different.
Hi Ann, me and my family don’t like the cake with orange taste, any alternative ingredient to replace orange juice? thank you!
Hi Lynn, you can use milk instead.
So airy and tender! I love that add of walnuts too.
