Vegan Chocolate Cupcake

I had these Vegan Cupcakes in mind for a long time now and was waiting for my little one to spell out the request. :) She is the only one at home who can tolerate or to some extent enjoy chocolate. 


So for all the chocolate lovers, here is a Vegan version of a decadent chocolate cupcake for Day 3  of BM 12!! The cupcakes were very moist and fluffy too. They were not too sweet and hence I dusted some powdered sugar.


Needless to say, these cupcakes can be unveganized, so to say by substituting regular milk instead of soy milk and using butter instead of oil.

Ingredients - 


Soy Milk 1 cup (Almond Milk can also be used)
Apple Cider Vinegar 1 tsp
Sugar 3/4 cup (I used Organic Brown Sugar)
Oil 1/3 cup (Any flavorless oil)
Vanilla extract 1-2 tsp
Whole Wheat Flour 1/2 cup
All Purpose Flour 6 Tbsp
Custard Powder 2 Tbsp (Cornstarch can be used)
Cocoa Powder 1/3 cup
Baking Soda 3/4 tsp
Baking Powder 1/2 tsp


*Instead of the Whole wheat flour -All Purpose Flour - Custard Powder blend, cake flour or simply All purpose flour can be used

Method Of Preparation -


In a bowl, pour soy milk and apple cider vinegar and set it aside to curdle.


Add in sugar, oil and vanilla to the curdled milk and whisk until frothy.


Sieve together the dry ingredients and transfer into the wet ingredients. Beat until smooth making sure it is not over mixed.


Preheat the oven to 350 F and prepare a muffin pan lined with paper liners.


Fill the batter in each cup, about 3/4th full.


Bake in the pre-heated oven for about 17 min or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.


Cool them on a cooling rack and devour! Oh and don't to dust some powdered sugar or swirl some frosting of your choice!
