Lemon Raspberry Bites
Lemon and raspberry are the perfect combination of sweet and tart. The light vanilla sponge is very sweet and is complemented by the tartness of the raspberry filling and the sourness in the lemon glaze.

- 1 ¾ cups gluten free all purpose flour.
- ¼ cup potato or tapioca starch
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 ½ cups sugar
- ¾ ts salt

Directions

- Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients to the wet until you get a smooth batter.
- In a prepared pan, bake the cupcakes for 10-15 minutes at 350℉
