Ingredients
Cupcakes:
1 cup plain flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
pinch salt
1/2 cup white sugar
1/3 cup plain flavoured oil
1/4 cup cocoa
1 cup Vitasoy Soy Milky Lite
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Caramel Frosting:
20 dried dates
4 tablespoons maple syrup
Method
- Preheat oven to 180C and line a cupcake tray with 10 patty pans. Set aside.
- Make the cupcakes: add all cupcake ingredients to a bowl and beat until smooth without lumps.
- Divide the mixture between the patty pans and bake for 20 minutes or so until a skewer comes out clean when poked into the centre of one of the cupcakes.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool.
- In the meantime, make the caramel frosting. Add all frosting ingredients to a processor and blend until smooth and creamy. Taste, and be amazed at the caramelly deliciousness. Set aside.
- Once the cupcakes have cooled, divide the frosting on to the tops of the cupcakes. Sprinkle with salt and serve immediately!
