Lime has a vibrant refreshing taste that really reminds me of summer days and holidays. In a cupcake, it's perfect. Sweet comforting light morish sponge with a zingy fresh flavour of lime, it'll keep makeing you reach out for 'just one more'.
The recipe and method couldn't be simpler. It's just a matter of adding all the ingredients in a bowl, giving it a good mix and spooning them into the cases to bake.
What you'll need is: 4oz unsalted butter,4oz caster sugar, 4 oz selfraising flour, 2eggs, 1 tsp lime juice, zest of one lime, 1 tbsp milk.
Once those ingredients are mixed and in cases, bake at gas mark 4 till cooked (about 10 to 15 min). Leave to cool for 5 min and brush on a little lime juice on each cupcake and sprinkle on caster sugar. Decorate with lime zest and enjoy!
I love the crunch of sugar ontop but if you prefer, a lime sugar syrup works well too. You could change the recipe to orange, lemon or any other citrus flavour. Why not let me know how it goes. I would love to hear from all you foodies out there...
