Hey there, fellow baking enthusiasts! Ever wanted to whip up a quick and delectable vanilla cupcake but realized you’re out of butter? Don’t fret, I’ve been there.

When I first started my baking journey, cupcakes were my initial challenge. I mean, who doesn’t love a good cupcake? They seemed more daunting to me than baking a whole cake. The key? Making sure everything’s at room temperature and not rushing through the steps.

As time went by and my kitchen saw more flour clouds and cocoa splatters, I began to play around. Different ingredients, diverse techniques—you name it. My quest for the perfect recipe led me to a delightful revelation. An easy-breezy Vanilla Cupcake without Butter!

And guess what? This recipe doesn’t require the usual butter but instead uses oil. The best part? No need to drag out that electric beater. A simple spoon or whisk does the trick. Mix away!

Oh, and before I forget, there’s a sweet surprise. The sugar crunch on top? It’s the cherry on the cake, creating that crave-worthy cracking structure that’s not just a treat for the taste buds but a feast for the eyes too!

Happy baking, everyone! 🧁
