Chocolate Cupcakes

Craving chocolate cake? Here is a great gluten free, vegan, refined sugar free recipe for you! I am trying to perfect a frosting so I will post a separate recipe once I have! For this one I just blended some stevia, coconut milk (fullfat, thick part only) and coconut and popped it on top.

I wanted a yummy filling so I added a local blackberry jam half way through. I want to perfect that too so stay tuned!! 

Here it is, enjoy!

Pre- heat oven to 350 Degrees F.  Line muffin trays with baking cups (makes 12).

Dry ingredients:
- 1 & 1/2 cups of all-purpose gluten free flour (I got it from Bulk Barn in the gluten free section. Pre mixed blend of garbanzo bean flour, potato starch, tapioca flour, white sorghum flour, fava bean flour.)
- 4 tbsp stevia
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 & 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt 

MIX ALL TOGETHER IN ONE BOWL

Wet ingredients:
- 1/3 cup coconut oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup almond milk
- 15 dates (pit them)

BLEND IN BLENDER UNTIL SMOOTH

Mix both blends together in a bowl. Spoon a small amount into each muffin cup [so that bottom is covered] and drop a spoon of jam or filling of your choice in the middle. [you could make little balls or chunks and freeze them so that they are solid when you put them in]

Pour another spoonful of batter on top to cover the jam! Put them in the oven for about 25 minutes! They should look something like this!

Let them cool and enjoy!! You can make a vegan buttercream frosting by replacing butter with Earth Balance products and stevia. YUM!
