What you will need to make this Sugar Free Vanilla Cupcakes

• All purpose flour 1 1/2 cups. Make this low carb or gluten free by subbing in other flour. Carbalose low carb flour alternative  or  gluten free all purpose flour alternative. Be sure to see the packaging on the label of any alternative that you use to see if there are adjustments that will need to be made. Often they will suggest adding additional liquids or fats.
• Baking Powder- 1 1/2 teaspoons.
• Eggs- 4.
• Sugar Alternative- 1 3/4 cups equivalent to sugar. Please use granular for best results.
• Butter- 1 3/4 sticks (3/4 cup) melted.
• Vanilla Extract- 2 teaspoons.
• Milk- 1/2 cup and additional (up to 3/4 cup total) if batter seems too thick. Thickeneing can happen when we use alternatives. We will add this divided.

How to make Sugar Free Vanilla Cupcakes

• Start by prepping your cupcake pan for nonstick (cupcake liners etc). Then preheat the oven to 325.
• In a medium bowl, combine together the flour (alternative) and the baking powder. Set this aside.
• Now in a mixing bowl, beat together the eggs and the sugar alternative. While this may not turn our foam like, as with regular sugar, beat for about two minutes on medium. Then turn the mixer down and pour in the melted butter and then the vanilla while the mixer is mixing.
• Stop the mixer, add about half of the flour mixture from the first bowl, mix for 10 seconds and then add 1/4 cup of milk and mix for another 10 seconds.
• Repeat the last step by adding the flour mixture and then 1/4 cup of milk.
• If the batter appears to be too thick (you will need to use your judgement from past experiences with cupcake batters) add a tablespoon of milk at a time, stirring by hand, until you reach your desired thickness. Do not add more than an additional 1/4 cup of milk. If you do not feel comfortable doing this simple just go with the 1/2 cup of milk.
• For regular sized cupcakes, bake these for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
• Allow these cupcakes to cool thoroughly before frosting.
