Fresh Ginger Cupcakes Recipe

  1. Heat the oven to 350 degrees F and arrange a rack in the middle.
  2. Line 2 (12-well) muffin pans with 9 paper liners each; set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, cloves, pepper, and salt to break up any lumps and aerate; set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk the molasses, oil, and sugar together until smooth.
  5. In a large saucepan, bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
  6. Whisk in the baking soda, then whisk in the molasses mixture until combined; remove from the heat.
  7. Using a rubber spatula, stir the minced ginger into the molasses mixture.
  8. Whisk the dry ingredients, a little at a time, into the batter until just combined.
  9. Using the rubber spatula, stir in the eggs until just combined.
  10. Fill the muffin wells about three-quarters of the way.
  11. Place the muffin pans side by side in the oven and bake for 9 minutes.
  12. Rotate the pans front to back and side to side and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cupcakes comes out clean, about 8 to 9 minutes more.
  13. Place the pans on wire racks and let them cool for 5 minutes.
  14. Remove the cupcakes from the pans and cool completely on the racks before frosting, about 1 hour.
  15. Sprinkle with the candied ginger, if using.
  16. Serve immediately, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
