Each cupcake is 2 ½ syns
Ingredients:
60g low fat spread
3 eggs
6 tablespoons sweetener
110g self-raising flour
1 teaspoon strawberry essence
3 drops vanilla essence
To decorate:
8 teaspoons icing sugar (plus a little extra for dusting)
A few drops red food colouring or gel (I use gel as it’s a
stronger colour with no flavor)
A few drops almond essence (if liked)
Strawberries
Method:
Preheat oven to 180 or Gas mark 5
Put your muffin cases on a baking tray, this mix should make
16 muffins
Whisk the eggs, low fat spread and sweetener until it’s all
blended
Add the vanilla and strawberry essences and whisk a little
more until light and well mixed
Fold in the flour
Spoon the mixture into your muffin cases and bake for about 20 minutes,
turning halfway through cooking. I found
they took a little longer to cook – they need to be a nice golden colour so don’t
worry if they take more like 25 minutes
Leave to cool on a wire rack
When the cakes are cool make up your icing by adding your
food colouring and then the cold water a few drops at a time. You can always add more, you can’t take it
out so add a few drops and give a good mix until you have a consistency that’s
thick enough to spook and drizzle but not runny…I personally found the buns a
little bland and added almond essence at this stage but that’s your choice
Garnish with strawberries and dust over a little icing sugar
for that finishing touch
