ORANGE BUTTER CUPCAKES




This is a super easy recipe for orange butter cupcakes. Soft and buttery from the inside, these tasty treats are loved by all.

Mention of oranges brings back memories of winter afternoons,  post lunch, where making orange and carrot juice use to become a family affair. Peeling, cutting and then putting oranges and carrots through the juicer, all the jobs were equally shared. This was an outdoor activity after which the session continued with the shelling of peanuts and having it with jaggery and lots of chit chatting.
Winters are all about enjoying hearty food and some quality time with dear ones.



Orange cupcakes made from real orange juice are always on the list of things to do in winters. Orange juice and orange zest impart a fresh orangy flavour to these delicious cupcakes. The vanilla essence compliments the orange flavour very well.
