One Bowl Lemon Cupcakes Recipe

  • Dry Ingredients:
  • 2 1/8 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • Wet Ingredients:
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon extract
  • 1 cup strained fresh lemon juice
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.
  2. Stir flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large mixing bowl. Beat milk, eggs, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and lemon extract into the dry ingredients using an electric mixer set to medium for 2 minutes.
  3. Bring lemon juice to a boil in a small saucepan and immediately beat into the batter with the electric mixer on low speed.
  4. Fill cupcake liners with batter to about two-thirds full.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 15 to 17 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
