Vegan Chocolate Cupcakes

November 29th, 2011 | Posted by Milana in Dessert | Vegan - (0 Comments)

These are the most decadent, moist cupcakes I have ever made without the use of eggs, milk, or butter! Definitely a keeper! Originally I got this recipe from cooks.com I altered it slightly for nutritional purposes. I hope you guys enjoy these as much as my family, friends and I do.

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup all purpose flour

1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup cane or coconut sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup cocoa powder or dutch process cocoa
1/4 cup avocado oil

1/4 cup all natural unsweetened applesauce

1 cup water
1 teaspoon white vinegar

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS:

Mix all of the ingredients well until combined. It should be brown and smooth. Free of lumps. Bake at 350°F for 18-20 minutes. Cupcakes will turn out moist and delicious. After they cool down you may use any favorite frosting to top them or eat them as is!  I used 1 tsp of Dairy Free Nicciolata to frost each cupcake.
