Gluten-Free Yellow Cupcakes
- 420 grams all-purpose gluten-free flour mix
- 2 teaspoons psyllium husks
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 345 grams (3 US sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 3 eggs
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup buttermilk
- Preparing to bake: Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease two 12-cup muffin tins.
- (For best results, use cupcake liners here.)
- Combining the dry ingredients: Whisk together the flour mix, the psyllium, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Set aside.
- Creaming the butter and sugar: Put the butter into the bowl of a stand mixer.
- Using the paddle attachment at medium speed, whirl the butter and sugar together until they are thoroughly combined, creamy, and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Be sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula once in a while.
- Combining the wet ingredients: Whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla extract.
- Set aside.
- Finishing the batter: With the stand mixer running, add the egg mixture, one tablespoon at a time, to the creamed butter and sugar.
- When the entire mixture is incorporated into the butter and sugar mixture, add 1/3 of the dry ingredients to the bowl.
- When there is no visible sign of flour, add 1/2 of the buttermilk.
- When that is incorporated, repeat this process, ending with the dry ingredients.
- Baking the cupcakes: Using a small ice cream scoop, spoon enough cake batter into the prepared muffin tins to fill each one 2/3 of the way.
- Put the tin into the oven and bake until the cupcakes are slightly firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the cupcakes comes out clean, 20 to 30 minutes.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tins for 15 minutes.
- Run a butter knife around the edges of the cupcakes, then turn them onto a cooling rack.
