This Golden Eggs is a PCOS-friendly recipe.
Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- Nonstick baking spray
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 2 cups sugar
- 5 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups nonfat buttermilk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 °F. Spray your molds with nonstick spray (I, obviously, use egg-shaped molds. You can use a muffin pan or any other small baking molds.)
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg. Set aside.
- In an electric mixer fitted with either the paddle or the whisk attachment, whip the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
- This can take up to 10 minutes, depending on the temperature of your butter.
- As you're whipping away, stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl to make sure all the butter is incorporated into the sugar.
- You can't make magic without a lot of patience. So keep whipping and keep scraping.
- Add the eggs one at a time, whipping after each one until the egg is fully incorporated into the batter.
- Scrape down the bowl every now and again as well.
- Add the vanilla.
- Once all the eggs are incorporated, alternate adding the flour mixture and the buttermilk, mixing slowly.
- After they are well incorporated but not overbeaten, take a rubber spatula and fold the batter a few times to make sure everything is evenly distributed and the batter is smooth.
- Distribute the batter into your molds, filling each cavity a little less than halfway.
- Bake for about 15 minutes. Baking time varies depending on the size of your mold, so check for a very light golden brown color and make sure the cake springs back when you touch it.
- Unmold your little cakes and while they are still warm, dunk them quickly in the melted butter, then dredge them in the cinnamon and sugar.
- One warning: people are going to call you a stinking liar. They will not believe that these precious morsels aren't fried like a donut. But that's the cost of making magic.
