Coffee cupcakes. Lenten dessert for tea

Do you know how many cupcake recipes there are on the site today? It turns out that as much as 45 and this is not the limit! I offer another option for simple and tasty homemade baking: prepare a coffee cake in a slow cooker. A dense and crispy crust, under which a tender and soft crumb is hidden. And the aroma is worth it...

Although the coffee cake recipe is intended for a multicooker (I have a Scarlett SC-411, the power of the device is 700 W, the bowl volume is 4 liters), but this pastry can be prepared in the oven without any problems. I advise you to use a mold with a diameter of 22-26 centimeters, after greasing it with vegetable oil (if butter, be sure to sprinkle it with flour). The baking time depends on the features of the oven, but set the temperature to 175-190 degrees and bake on a medium level until dry.

Ingredients:

(450 grams) (4 pieces ) (200 grams) (200 grams) (100 milliliters) (1.5 tablespoons) (1 tablespoon ) (2.5 teaspoons) (1 pinch)

Cooking the dish step by step with photos:

To prepare a delicious and aromatic coffee cake, we will need the following ingredients: premium wheat flour, butter (fat content of at least 72%), large chicken eggs (about 50-55 grams each), granulated sugar, drinking water, unsweetened cocoa powder, instant coffee, baking powder and salt. All foods should be at room temperature, so remove them from the refrigerator in advance.

For coffee taste and aroma, dissolve 1.5 tablespoons of high-quality instant coffee and 1 tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder in 100 milliliters of hot water (it will give the cake not only a light chocolate flavor, but also color). Of course, instead of instant coffee, you can use ground coffee to make a strong espresso. Mix everything thoroughly and let cool to room temperature.

I suggest making the dough for the future cupcake using a plenum mixer, but you can also use a hand mixer. In a bowl (deja) put 200 grams of soft (take it out of the refrigerator in advance) butter, add 200 grams of sugar.

Carefully grind the butter and sugar to obtain a relatively homogeneous mass. After this, add 4 large eggs one at a time (you can replace 5 medium-sized ones) - when one is completely mixed into the oil, add the next one.

As a result, you should have a delicate oil mixture that is fairly homogeneous. I beat everything with a mixer (whisk attachment) at high speed for about 5 minutes. Add cooled coffee and cocoa and mix it into the mixture.

Mix all the ingredients to make a smooth, airy and shiny cake batter. In general, cake dough, as a rule, is not kneaded for a long time so that the crumb of the finished product does not turn out dense and clogged, but there is quite a decent amount of baking powder, so the cake will be very tender and airy. The consistency of the dough is not very thick, but it holds its shape well - I collected it with a spatula towards the center and it did not spread.

Lubricate the multicooker bowl with a small amount of refined vegetable oil or butter (take a teaspoon of the total weight), but then additionally sprinkle the surface with wheat flour (shake off the excess). This method of preparing a baking dish is called a “French shirt”.

Coffee cake is a great dessert that will make any cloudy day festive. In rainy weather, such baked goods will improve your mood. But how is such a dessert made? Now let's look at a few good options.

Ingredients for coffee cakes:

Dough:

• Flour - 200-300 gr.
• Sugar - 75 gr.
• Margarine - 100 gr.
• Sour cream - 100 gr.
• Eggs - 2 pcs.
• Baking powder - 1 tsp.
• Instant or freeze-dried coffee (natural ground coffee will not work) - 2 tbsp.
• Ground cinnamon - to taste.
• Water - a third of a glass.

Syrup:

• Instant coffee - 1 tbsp.
• Water - a third of a glass.
• Sugar - 75 gr.

Coffee cupcake recipe:

1) In a separate container, mix flour, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. It wouldn’t hurt to stir the contents of the bowl with a whisk for even a few minutes so that the ingredients are distributed evenly in the mixture.

2) Grind margarine and sugar thoroughly. There is no need to be particularly zealous; the margarine should not melt. Then add the eggs one at a time, mixing them into the margarine. When the mixture becomes homogeneous, you can move on to the next step.

3) Pour two tablespoons of instant coffee into 1/3 cup of hot, but not boiling water. Stir and leave to cool. Oddly enough, instant coffee is better suited for baking than ground coffee, because it is essentially a ready-made extract.

4) Add sour cream and cooled coffee to the mixture of eggs, sugar and margarine. Break the pieces of margarine into as small as possible; you won’t be able to get rid of them completely at this stage; they will disperse later, when you add flour.

5) Then start adding the mixture of flour, cinnamon and baking powder little by little, kneading the dough. When it becomes smooth and homogeneous, like thick sour cream, you can start pouring it into the mold.

6) It is more convenient, of course, to bake cupcakes in special disposable paper molds. In this case, there is no need to grease the pan with oil, and the cupcakes can be easily removed later. However, you can easily do without molds. Grease a metal or silicone muffin tin with a thin layer of oil. Place the dough into the cups so that about one centimeter remains to the top edge (the cupcakes will rise during baking). Turn on the oven. Before placing the cupcakes in, you should bring the temperature in the oven to 180 degrees.

7) While the cupcakes are in the oven, you can work on the second important component of this dish - the syrup for soaking the cupcakes. Place sugar (75 g) in a saucepan and fill with water. Also dissolve a tablespoon of coffee in a small amount of water and add to the sugar.

8) Place the pan on the burner and bring the future syrup to a boil, then reduce the heat. Boil the syrup until slightly thickened and then cool.

9) The cupcakes should stay in the oven for about half an hour. After 30 minutes, take them out, poke a few holes in each cupcake and pour a generous amount of coffee syrup over them. Now you need to wait for the cupcakes to cool completely and soak in the syrup before removing them from the pan.
