1-BOWL VEGAN FUNFETTI CUPCAKES Recipes

I have one of those super cool moms who brought in cupcakes for my class on my birthday. She always baked them in ice cream cones and she always topped them with tons of sprinkles.

Ingredients
CUPCAKES:

• 1 cup non-dairy milk
• 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
• 1/2 cup vegan butter (such as Earth Balance // softened // 1 stick yields 1/2 cup)
• 1 scant cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/3 cup rainbow sprinkles* (plus more for topping)

FROSTING:

• 1/2 cup vegan butter (softened // 1 stick yields 1/2 cup)
• 2 1/2 – 3 cups powdered sugar
• 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
• Splash non-dairy milk

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C) and line a standard muffin holder with 12 paper liners (as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size).
3. In a liquid measuring cup, measure out non-dairy milk and add vinegar or lemon juice. Let set to curdle/activate.
4. Add softened butter to a large mixing bowl and cream with a mixer. Then add sugar and vanilla and beat until combined and fluffy – about 2 minutes.
5. Add dry ingredients (omitting sprinkles) to a sifter in this order: two-thirds of the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and then the remaining third of the flour.
7. Sift over butter/sugar mixture alternating with the almond milk mixture. Blend until well incorporated and no large lumps remain.
9. Add sprinkles and gently fold/stir with a rubber spatula or mixing spoon.
10. Divide evenly among cupcake holders making sure NOT to overfill. These do best at 3/4 of the way up.
11. Bake on a center rack for 20-24 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. They will only have a very, very slight golden brown color.
12. Let cool completely on a cooling rack. In the meantime, prepare frosting.
13. Wipe clean your mixing bowl and add softened butter. Beat until light and fluffy. Then add vanilla and mix once more.
