funfetti cupcakes (small batch-style)

because, duh: funfetti.  and cupcakes.

funfetti cupcakes
adapted from here (in fact, go look at those awesome pics cuz my recipe doesn't have one and hers are real pretty)

active time: 5 minutes | cook time: 8-15 minutes | yields: 2 regular-sized cupcakes or 6 mini cupcakes
ingredients
1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons unsweetened applesauce
1 tablespoon skim milk
1 egg white
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons sugar
4 tablespoons unbleached all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sprinkles
non-stick cooking spray

directions
preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
spray muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.  set aside.
beat the canola oil, applesauce, egg, milk, vanilla extract, and sugar together.
mix in the flour and baking powder.
add the sprinkles. stir just to combine evenly - don’t overstir!
pour into prepared muffin tin.
bake for about 8-10 minutes for mini cupcakes or 15-18 minutes for regular-sized cupcakes, or until a toothpick/knife comes out clean.
cool, frost, and enjoy.

note
I like to bake my minis for 8 minutes, then turn the (toaster) oven off and crack the door for about 5 minutes, then open it all the way until cool.
