Ingredients:

3 eggs

20 grams of sugar

A lemon or a little bit of vinegar

15 grams of corn oil

60 grams of low-gluten flour

Some raisins

Making Process:

Step 1 – Prepare a large bowl that doesn’t have water or oil in it. Add in three eggs.

Step 2 – Add 20 grams of sugar to it. Cut the lemon in two halves. And squeeze some lemon juice into the bowl. If you don’t buy a lemon, add a little bit of vinegar instead.

Step 3 – Mix them up with an eggbeater or a whisk at a high speed. When there is a little horn appearing after you take out the mixer, it’s ready for the next step.

Step 4 – Add 15 grams of corn oil into it. If you don’t have corn oil, add some other oil that doesn’t have a strong smell. Then, mix it up gently.

Step 5 – Add 60 grams of low-gluten flour using a sifter. Mix it up gently. Don’t stir it, or you will have a pancake.

Step 6 – Put some raisin into each small cup. And then pour the mixed cake paste into the cups. If you afraid of pouring it out, you can use a piping bag for help.

Step 7 – Put the cupcakes in your air fryer. Cook for 20 minutes at 140℃. Enjoy them!

You can also add some fruit or jam on them before eating.

Can we use tinfoil in air fryer?

The answer is definitely YES. And it’s a good method to use tinfoil in air fryer when there isn’t an additional container. Wrap up the whole tray in it with tinfoil. It will prevent food to be burned in roasting, and reduce the greasy burst on the inner wall of air fryers, which can save your time to clean it. It’s very useful when you roast chicken wings or steaks.
