Vanilla and Chocolate Cupcakes with NO BUTTER - super easy to make with kids!!!

Vanilla cupcakes - 2 doz

4 eggs
1c sugar
1c oil
1c milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp baking powder
2c flour

Mix oil sugar eggs well then add rest - will be quite runny - is more a batter. 

Chocolate cupcakes - 2 doz

4 eggs
1c sugar
1c oil
1c milk
1 tsp vanilla
1tbsp b powder
6tbsp cocoa - if you're using Equagold you only need about 4tbsp
1 3/4c flour

180C 20 mins for cupcake wrappers in muffin tins - less if using patty tin sized papers or mini muffin sized. 

I often make both these mixes and marble them together. Have also successfully substituted 150ml of applesauce for oil when making a 1 and half times amount (so 150ml apple sauce to 225ml oil) and one less egg (5 instead of 6) and they were fine.

Nice and easy for kids to make as don't have to cream butter and sugar. Use a measuring cup to pour batter into cases. Cases need to be about 3/4 full.
