I usually don't prefer whole wheat vanilla cupcakes because I thought they would be bland in taste when compared to other cupcakes. So I never tried them. But a request to bake them, made me think as to how they would taste.


In order to make them a little rich I added roasted almond chunks and almond essence and to my surprise these cupcakes tasted so good and heavenly than any other flavour.They were a hit among the people.  

They were soft and moist and rich in almond flavour, the best part was that they were eggless too.
