Gluten Free Yellow Cake And Cupcakes

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease two 8 or 9 inch round cake pans and sprinkle with tapioca flour if youre making a layer cake. Otherwise, line a muffin tin with baking cups.

Mix together the coconut flour, tapioca flour, salt, xanthan gum, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.

6 min

Beat the eggs, sugar, and mayonnaise until fluffy.

Then slowly add the vanilla, flour mixture, and milk. Alternating between the flour and milk to make a nice fluffy cake. Note- I usually use just barely under 3/4 C of the milk alternative.

Pour the batter into the greased cake pans or fill the baking cups 3/4 full (makes 24 cupcakes).
