Gingerbread Cupcakes

300g high grade flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
4tsp ground ginger
1tsp cinnamon
225g light brown sugar
2 eggs
115ml honey
115g unsalted butter, melted
175ml milk
2 Tbsp roughly chopped crystallised ginger

Preheat the oven to 175°C. Place 12 paper baking cases in a muffin tin. Sieve the flour, baking powder, ginger and cinnamon into a large bowl. In a medium bowl combine the remaining ingredients and beat with an electric whisk until smooth, about 2 - 3 minutes. Stir into the dry ingredients. Spoon the batter into the cases.

Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes. Remove cupcakes and cool on a rack.

(You're supposed to put a lemon drizzle over the top but I made them for Christmas so did butter cream with a white chocolate decoration and some of the sparkly sprinkle over the top)
