Estos Magdalenas de vainilla fáciles are super simple plant-based cupcakes ready in under 30 minutes and made with just 4 ingredientes simples.

So I went for a super simple, back-to-basic dough that you can make in under 30 minutes with 4 ingredients I know you have in your pantry!

Ingredientes y sustituciones
Here are the 4 ingredients you need for the dough.
- Harina con levadura – Provides the structure and lift, giving the cupcakes their fluffy texture. If you don’t have self-rising flour, make your own by mixing 1 ¾ cups of all-purpose flour with 2 ½ teaspoons of baking powder. For a gluten-free option, use my convertidor sin gluten, pero no olvides el polvo para hornear.
- Aceite de oliva ligero – Adds moisture without overpowering the flavor. If you prefer, use vegetable oil, canola oil, or sunflower oil. Avoid melted coconut oil, which can solidify when mixed with cold milk.
- Leche de almendras con vainilla sin azúcar – Keeps the cupcakes light and adds subtle vanilla flavor. Any dairy-free milk (like oat, soy, or coconut milk) works. If using plain milk, add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract for flavor.
- Sugar – Sweetens the batter and helps create a tender crumb. You can use unrefined cane sugar, granulated sugar, or even coconut sugar, though darker sugars may change the cupcakes’ color.
How to Make Easy Vanilla Cupcakes
Here are pictures of the (few) key steps to make these cupcakes in under 30 minutes.

Pour all the cupcake ingredients into a mixing bowl.

Stir the batter with a whisk until sticky and there are just a few lumps.

Pour the batter in a muffin tin lined with paper cases.

Bake the cupcakes for 20-25 minutes at 350 °F (180 °C).
Opciones de glaseado
While you can have these cupcakes unfrosted, there’s nothing quite like a sweet, soft frosting on the best cupcakes! I have many options for you, here are the best:
- Glaseado de vainilla vegano – The vegan version of the classic frosting recipe, made with only 4 ingredients. It makes perfect cupcakes.
- Glaseado de proteína en polvo – If you want more protein, this frosting adds 3g of protein per slice.
- Glaseado vegano de crema de coco con 3 ingredientes – This is by far the easiest frosting recipe I’ve ever made, with just 3 ingredients.
- Glaseado de anacardos – This simple, very healthy alternative frosting is made with cashews.
- Glaseado de chocolate vegano – A chocolate version of my simple vegan frosting.
- Glaseado real vegano – While it’s not quite frosting, adding my royal icing makes these cupcakes amazing.
- Ganache vegano – This is another slightly left-field option, but a little chocolate ganache on the top is delicious!
Consejos de repostería de Carine
- No mezcles demasiado la masa. – Mix the ingredients just until combined to avoid activating too much gluten, which can make the cupcakes dense. A few small lumps in the batter are okay.
- Use a Cookie Scoop for Even Portions – For perfectly even cupcakes, use a cookie scoop or ice cream scoop to divide the batter between the muffin cups. This ensures consistent baking and presentation.
- Preheat the Oven Fully – Make sure the oven is fully preheated to 350°F (180°C) before placing the cupcakes inside. An under-heated oven can cause the cupcakes to rise unevenly or collapse.
- Comprueba la cocción con antelación. – Every oven bakes differently, so start checking the cupcakes at the 20-minute mark by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean or with just a few crumbs, they’re done.
- Dejar enfriar completamente antes de glasear. – Let the cupcakes cool fully on a wire rack to prevent the frosting from melting. If you’re in a rush, pop them in the fridge for 10 minutes to speed up cooling.
- Store Properly to Retain Freshness – Store the cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the fridge for up to a week. If storing unfrosted, you can freeze them for up to 2 months and thaw as needed.
- Make Mini Cupcakes for Bite-Sized Treats – Reduce the baking time to 12-15 minutes to create mini cupcakes that are perfect for parties or portion-controlled snacking.







Thank you for this (one more time) good recipe. Easy and quick to realize. Will be part of my regular cooking.
Gracias!
Can we use normal almond milk and add vanilla sugar instead of unsweetened vanilla almond?
¡Por supuesto!
Can we use any tetra pack milk ( fullcream )
Deberia de funcionar
Can you use gluten-free flour?
No, pero puedes hacer mi vegan gluten free cake and bake it in cupcake shape.
Can apple sauce be used in place of the oil?
I don’t think they will be good without oil, it will make the cupcakes dense and gummy.
Can I sub sugar with maple syrup?
No, in most of my baking recipes, you can’t sub a liquid sweetener for a crystal sweetener because of the difference in moisture.
