Vegan Vanilla Cupcakes

  • 1 ¼ cup unsweetened almond or oat milk regular milk will also work if not vegan
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ¼ cup melted vegan butter regular butter will also work if not vegan
  • 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cup regular or gluten free all purpose flour If gluten-free, I recommend King Arthur Measure for Measure gluten-free flour. Please don't substitute any other flour such as almond flour, baking flour, etc.

Vanilla Frosting

  • 1 ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoon softened vegan butter regular butter will also work if not vegan
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened almond or oat milk regular milk will also work if not vegan

Instructions
 

Vegan Vanilla Cupcakes

  • Preheat oven to 350. Line 12 cupcake molds with paper liners and then spray them with non-stick baking spray.
  • In a mixing bowl, mix the almond milk, sugar, vegan butter, baking powder, baking soda, and vanilla. Then, mix in the flour just until combined. Don't over-mix! Pour the batter into 12-14 lined cupcake molds and bake for 25-30 minutes.
  • While the cupcakes are baking, use a whisk or electric hand mixer to mix the powdered sugar, almond milk, and vanilla. Allow the cupcakes to cool before frosting. Top with sprinkles
