- First, make your cupcakes! Preheat the oven to 350° F and line two 12-cupcake pans with paper cupcake cups. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, oil, sour cream, lemon juice/zest/extract, honey, vanilla, and basil until combined. Add in the flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and mix to combine.
- Spoon cupcake batter into each lined cupcake cup – they should be a little over 3/4 full. Bake for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Let cupcakes cool completely before frosting them.
- While cupcakes are cooling, make the frosting! In a large bowl, using the electric mixer, beat together the butter and 1 cup of the powdered sugar on high for at least a minute until smooth and fluffy. Add in the powdered sugar one cup at a time until smooth. Add the vanilla, lemon juice/zest/extract, and basil and beat beat until smooth. Add in more powdered sugar to stiffen up the frosting, or add a teaspoon of cream if it's too stiff.Once cupcakes are cooled, scoop frosting into a large piping bag with your choice of piping tip, and pipe frosting onto cupcakes. Top with sprigs of basil and serve!

- Beat margarine and 1 cup of powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add 1/2 cup more of powdered sugar and slowly incorporate into the mixture. Once fully incorporated, add raspberry jam, almond extract, and 1 tbsp milk. Beat until creamy. Add more liquid or more powdered sugar to reach desired consistency. (For this cupcake, I prefer a thicker frosting so I added about 2 cups of powdered sugar and very little coconut milk.)
