Instructions
 

Prepare the Batter

  • In a bowl, whisk together the yogurt and powdered sugar until smooth.
  • Sieve the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and baking soda together three times to ensure a light texture.
  • Add the cardamom powder and sweetened condensed milk to the yogurt mixture. Whisk until well combined.
  • Gently fold in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  • Crack in one large egg and mix until fully incorporated.

Prepare the Molds

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) for 10 minutes.
  • Grease your cupcake molds generously with unsalted butter.

Assemble and Bake

  • Place one gulab jamun in the bottom of each prepared cupcake mold.
  • Spoon the batter evenly over the gulab jamuns, filling each mold about ¾ full.
  • Tap the molds gently on the countertop to remove any air bubbles.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Garnish and Serve

  • Let the cupcakes cool slightly in the molds before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Garnish with chopped pistachios.
  • Serve and enjoy your delicious Gulab Jamun Cupcakes!

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Gulab Jamun Cupcakes

  • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of saffron strands to the batter.
  • If your gulab jamuns are very large, you may need to cut them in half to fit them into the cupcake molds.
  • Don't overmix the batter, as this can result in tough cupcakes. Mix only until the ingredients are just combined.
  • To ensure even baking, use a reliable oven thermometer to monitor the temperature accurately.
