Instrukce

Poznámky
Výživa
Přísady a náhražky
All the wet ingredients you need to make easy vegan cupcakes are:

- Univerzální mouka – Pro bezlepkovou verzi použijte můj průvodce přechodem na bezlepkovou dietu. Spelt flour is another great option, but it’s a heavier flour, and the cupcakes would be less fluffy with this option. Oat flour won’t work in this recipe.
- Prášek do pečiva – or if you prefer, replace with only 3/4 teaspoon baking soda.
- Bílý cukr – there are plenty of healthier white sugar options like low GI cane sugar or unrefined cane sugar. Use your preferred option. I don’t recommend coconut sugar in this vegan vanilla cupcake recipe. It makes the batter heavy, brown in color, and not as appealing.
- Nemléčné mléko – I love to use unsweetened almond milk, the texture of the cupcake is lighter and fluffy, but soy milk, oat milk, or any plant-based milk will work here.
- Apple Cider Vinegar – or any acidic ingredient, like lemon juice or white vinegar. This curdles the non-dairy milk and creates moist cupcakes.
- Rostlinný olej – I used avocado oil, but melted coconut oil will also work! But watch out, never add melted coconut oil into cold non-dairy milk, or your coconut oil will solidify and form lumps! Make sure the milk and coconut oil are at the same temperature if you use this option.
- Vanilkový extrakt – this brings a delicate flavor.
How To Make Vegan Vanilla Cupcakes
It is easy to make homemade vegan vanilla cupcakes without eggs or dairy. All you need is to combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients, using an electric beater, spoon, or a stand mixer with the paddle attachment.

- First, stir the non-dairy milk with apple cider vinegar. The reaction between the acid and plant-based milk will curdle the milk creating vegan buttermilk. The remaining wet ingredients will be added to the dry ingredients later in the recipe, along with the vegan buttermilk.

- Combine all these dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Then, make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add the vegan buttermilk made before, along with oil and vanilla extract.

- Combine the ingredients with a whisk, spoon, or electric beater. I recommend an electric beater to create fluffy, moist cupcakes and avoid lumps.

- Fill the cupcake liners. The tricky part of making beautiful cupcakes is to fill the cupcake liners evenly up to a maximum of 2/3 of their capacity. You should never fill the cupcake liner up to the top, or the cupcakes overflow in the oven and look like muffins. I recommend using a measuring cup to fill each cupcake liner and adding 1/3 cup of cupcake batter to each cupcake liner. If you still have some batter left, add evenly to each cupcake.

- This easy vegan vanilla cupcake recipe bakes in 20 to 23 minutes in the center rack of your oven at 350°F (180°C).

- Your vegan cupcakes are ready when a toothpick inserted in the center of one cupcake comes out clean and the top is golden.
Poleva na cupcakes
A cupcake wouldn’t be a cupcake without buttermilk frosting. To make a creamy, sweet dairy-free frosting, read my full frosting recipe. Potřebuješ:
- Měkké veganské máslo – there are many brands available. I recommend Earth Balance.
- Práškový cukr – also known as icing sugar.
- Vanilkový extrakt
- Neslazené mandlové mléko
- To make vegan vanilla icing for cupcakes, beat the butter with vanilla extract until pale and fluffy.
- Then, sift in the powdered sugar gradually until it forms a thick frosting. If the frosting is too thick for your liking. If it is the case, add extra unsweetened almond milk about 1-2 tablespoons for a softer consistency.
- First, cool the cupcakes for at least 3 hours on a cooling rack.
- Then, prepare the vegan cupcake frosting recipe as explained above.
- Finally, spread or pipe vegan cupcake icing over each cooled cupcake. You can top your cupcakes with sprinkles. Most of them are vegan-friendly.

Pokyny pro skladování
You can store your vegan cupcakes at room temperature for 24 hours maximum. Then, store in a cupcake box in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days. The cupcake box prevents the cupcake frosting from drying out, and it keeps the cupcake crumb moist and fluffy.
You can also freeze the cupcake in a sealed container. Then, thaw the cupcakes the day before at room temperature.

Solid and reliable cupcake recipe. Made it for my daughter’s summer birthday and have baked it repeatedly since then.
If I double the recipe, will it be enough for a 3 layer 9” cake?
12 cupcakes are equivalent to about 10″ pan, so for 2 pan of 9″ it should be ok, but for thicker layers, you can triple the recipe
Thank you so much for this recipe!! So simple, easy, and good…exactly what I wanted!!
Děkuji!!
Má být těsto husté?
Not at all it’s more liquid than thick.
I liked this recipe – it wasn’t to light or too dense and held together well. Not a very sweet recipe but if icing is sweet it balances out.
Can I make this into 3 6” layers? For a smash cake?
Yes, that should work. For the baking time, use the skewer technique and wait until there’s no more crumbs on it!
First vegan cupcake recipe that didn’t fail or disappoint!! I subbed flour for spelt as mentioned, I did stevia instead of sugar and olive oil which was all I had still was a lovely spongey texture!
I am not a baker so wondering if I could use this as a base to add things like choc chip, lemon and blueberry but happy to experiment now I’ve got this amazing recipe, thankyou
I melt down chopped fruit with honey into a watery jam and stir a few tablespoons right into the batter with no issue! i’ve also added choco chips and small fruit chunks and they both work beautifully. you can also substitute different extracts for the vanilla (i’ve used both orange and lemon) and added coconut flakes. very versatile recipe that i love oh so much!
A beautiful & fail-safe recipe! Cupcakes are moist & delicious, recipe uses simple pantry staple ingredients, an absolute winner each & every time. Thanks so much for sharing!
I’m Janice, can I omit the oil ? Or replace it with the same amount of banana paste. Thank you.
It could work, but the texture won’t be light and fluffy
Can I double ti recipe?
Samozřejmě!
