Indulgent meringue cupcakes for a delightful morning treat.
Ingredients:
  • 175g butter, softened
  • 322.50 gm caster sugar
  • 199.50 gm self-raising flour, sifted
  • 2.00 gm baking powder
  • 3 eggs
  • 4.40 gm vanilla extract
  • 82.50 ml passionfruit pulp (see note)
  • 3 egg whites
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced and line a 12-hole muffin pan with paper cases.
  • With an electric mixer, cream together butter, sugar, flour, baking powder, eggs, and vanilla until smooth and well mixed, about 3 minutes. Mix in passionfruit pulp until just combined. Spoon the batter into paper cases and bake for 20 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean when inserted into a cake. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Prepare the meringue: Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. In an electric mixer, whip egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gradually add sugar, one tablespoon at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Continue to beat for 3 minutes or until the sugar is completely dissolved. Transfer the mixture into a piping bag with a 1cm plain nozzle.
  • Line a baking tray with cupcakes. Pipe meringue on top. Bake for 3 to 4 minutes until lightly browned. Let cool completely before serving.
