Baking cupcakes in silicone molds is an exciting experience and a useful skill. The delicate smell of home-made freshly made dough can cheer you up even with a deep gloomy autumn. In addition, original cupcakes in silicone molds will delight your guests, and you do not have to spend a whole day baking a cake. Let's get acquainted with the recipes.
Silicone Chocolate Muffin
These small elegant products are not only tasty, but also will not spoil your figure. Indeed, their composition includes such an unusual ingredient for baking, like grated carrots. If you are wary of adding mashed potatoes to the dough, we advise you to cast aside doubts and try. To bake such cupcakes in silicone molds in the amount of twelve pieces, you need fifty grams of rye flour and one hundred and twenty oatmeal (it can be prepared using a coffee grinder from ordinary oatmeal), as well as an egg, a glass of fat yogurt, a spoonful of cocoa, puree from medium-sized carrots and baking powder.
Low-fat dough itself will be a little dry, so prepare for such cakes a filling of cottage cheese (250 grams), raisins and vanilla. Mix the dry ingredients first among themselves, and then with a beaten egg and kefir. Add carrots to the resulting dough. Spread half the dough in the forms, then two tablespoons of the filling, then the second half. Bake at medium temperature for fifteen minutes.
Mint muffins in silicone molds
This original pastry with the taste of the Mojito cocktail will cheer you up. For six small muffins, you will need two eggs, a glass of kefir, two glasses of flour, a glass of sugar, a baking powder, half a glass of refined vegetable oil and a bunch of mint. Wash and chop greens. Beat eggs with kefir, butter and sugar. Add pre-sifted flour and baking powder. Stir in peppermint. Pour into the mold and bake forty minutes. If the product is still wet in the middle while the top is well baked, cover the cupcakes in silicone molds with foil. Cool and serve with tea.
Chocolate muffins made with a double boiler
Cooking the dough in a double boiler allows you to achieve that density, which is well suited for bread and not very pastry cake. By adding nuts, spices and cocoa, you can get very tasty pastries. You can also put raisins or various dried fruits in the dough. First bake a test batch - for example, three medium cupcakes. For them, you will need one egg, forty grams of oat and rye flour, two tablespoons of kefir, nuts, raisins, cocoa, ginger, vanilla, cinnamon, soda and honey to taste.
