As I was about to make some pumpkin cupcakes, I looked over the recipe and realized that I left out the most important ingredient - PUMPKIN!


Below, you will find an updated version of my Pumpkin Cupcakes with Autumn Spiced Frosting. Enjoy!



Pumpkin Cupcakes with Autumn Spiced Frosting


Ingredients:
1 small can of pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)
1 c. coconut milk
1 tsp. apple cider vinegar
1 1/4 cups pastry flour
(or unbleached, all purpose flour)
1 1/2 tsp. EnerG Egg Replacer,
mixed with 2 tbsp. warm water
3/4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/3 c. canola oil
(preferably Organic and Expeller-Pressed)
3/4 c. vegan sugar
1 tbsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp. ground cloves
1/4 tsp. ground ginger
1 serving Autumn Spiced Frosting (recipe to follow)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line your cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
2. Mix the coconut milk with the vinegar in a small bowl and set it aside for a few minutes.
3. Mix the oil, coconut milk mixture, sugar, vanilla, egg replacer mixture, and spices in a large bowl.
4. Sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in another large bowl.
5.  Add the dry mix to the wet mix slowly, and remember to scrape the sides of the bowl as you mix. Mix until there are no large lumps left.
6. Fill the cupcake liners two-thirds of the way and bake for 18-22 minutes (depending on your oven). To check to see if the cupcakes are done, stick a toothpick in the middle of the cupcake - if the toothpick comes out clean, you're good. Transfer the cupcakes to a cooling rack, and allow them to cool completely before you frost them.
