Adventures in Cooking: Babycakes Cupcakes

It's no surprise that Ashley and I love cupcakes...So when my best friend Emily gave me this cupcake book a few years ago we were elated! This is a book from a bakery here in NYC. All the recipes are vegan, gluten free, and mostly sugar free. Healthy cupcakes? Complete heaven! Here I am sharing a recipe for vanilla cupcakes that are absolutely delish!

Ingredients:

2 cups Garbanzo-Fava Bean Flour

1 cup potato starch

1/2 cup arrowroot

1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder

1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda

1 teaspoon xanthan gum

2 teaspoons of salt

2/3 cup of coconut oil

1 1/3 cups of agave nectar

3/4 Applesauce

3 tablespoons Vanilla Extract

Grated zest of 1 lemon

1 cup of hot water

Whisk together the dry ingredients...Then add all of the rest! That simple!

Pour 1/3 cup batter into each prepared cup

Bake at 325 for 22 minutes!

 So delicious!

Until Next Time!

Cupcakes

It's no secret that Shelby and I love cupcakes. We own so many cupcake books and love experimenting with different kinds. We have a system now- Shelby does the cake and I do the frosting. Shelby got me a Sprinkles cupcake mix for Christmas last year and I never got around to baking it. We decided today was the perfect day. 

 

 

 They turned out great and taste yummy to! I love that the mix even comes with the famous Sprinkles dots. What's your favorite kind of cupcake?

Until next time
