My biggest tip for this is to do the toothpick test. Insert a toothpick into the middle of 1-2 cupcakes, and if it comes out clean, with a few moist crumbs, the cupcakes are ready!
The top 10 most popular flavors of cupcakes are chocolate, vanilla, pumpkin, banana, carrot, lemon, peanut butter, red velvet, peanut butter, and coffee.
Make sure that all your ingredients are at room temperature and your butter is softened. The most important ingredients that should be at room temperature are eggs, buttermilk, and butter.
This will ensure that your mixture mixes into a homogenous batter and will bake perfectly.
