Cherry cupcake

Soft airy cupcake that just melts in your mouth. I already posted a cherry cupcake recipe last month, but it used whole eggs. In the same recipe, only proteins are needed for the dough. Such a cupcake will help out a lot if you need to dispose of proteins.

Baking on egg whites is not so much. However, I very often have unused proteins. And I'm starting to look for new recipes where they can be attached. This time, another constant value turned out to be a cherry. It also needed to be used urgently somewhere. So I decided to combine these two ingredients. I found an interesting recipe on the Internet.

I was somewhat surprised by the technology of dough preparation, because we usually add whipped whites to the rest of the dough. This is necessary so that the proteins do not settle when stirring. And here - flour mixture in whipped whites.

At first I wanted to make a semi-liquid dough from flour and melted butter and then add whipped whites to it. However, at the last moment I decided to cook according to the recipe. And it turned out that in this case the proposed technology is fully justified. The dough, though a little settled, but it did not affect the taste and consistency of the finished cake at all. The cupcake turned out to be porous, soft and airy. 

Cherry adds the necessary sourness to the cupcake. The original recipe had 250 g of sugar. It seemed to me that there was too much sugar and I strangled it to 200 g. The cupcake turned out to be moderately sweet.

In addition to cherries, a cupcake can be prepared with any berries.
