About
Lemon and Poppy seed Cupcakes
These didn’t turn out how I imagined but that is not a bad thing, they are delicious. For a start I used Trex instead of vegan butter which made them extra light a fluffy. I only used that as I didn’t have enough of my usual vegan butter. They also didn’t rise as much as I had hoped either but are so light and fluffy. The top has a light crunch which is surprisingly yummy.
