Gluten Free Vanilla Cupcakes

My family are coming round tomorrow, perfect opportunity to try a new cupcake recipe out.



I've used my Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World book once more, this time using the Vanilla Gluten Freedom Cupcake recipe. I managed to source some white rice flour so now I have everything! They taste lovely and light, the colour seems to be dark because of the linseed and the quinoa taste is quite strong. I topped them with hazelnut spread. I want to sub the linseed with chia seeds next time to see if it makes the colour lighter. Was a bit worried about the cake mix being so thin but it must be normal. Just so happy with the texture, it wasn't gummy and dense at all :)

Sexy low-fat vanilla cupcakes

Last night I couldn't switch off and had it ingrained in my head that I must make some kind of low-fat cake (it was 10pm).

I baked the sexy low-fat vanilla cupcakes from Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World by Isa & Terry.




I must admit I was feeling daring as I haven't made these since I had just got the book and tried this recipe as they went horribly wrong (very dense, and not light and fluffy). I think one of the culprits was that I didn't have everything at room temperature. But anyway, they came out perfect this time! I love love how overnight they go lovely and soft on top :) I used Kara coconut plant milk too.
