(I'm so used to whole "eggs" in my recipes). Would it make a difference if I used an "egg" measurement (1Tsp. flax to 3Tsp. of water) in the recipe? Also, can I replace apple cider vinegar for white vinegar? ]]> Tue, 09 Apr 2013 13:18:02 -0400 732-1513 http://www.veganbaking.net/cakes/cupcakes/732-banana-cupcakes-with-chocolate-peanut-butter-ganache-icing love the idea that banana combined with chocolate... usually I always prefer chocolate banana bun. don't you think it will be a great idea if we can make cupcake with banana chocolate filling.... ]]> Tue, 19 Mar 2013 06:52:35 -0400 559-1134 http://www.veganbaking.net/cakes/cupcakes/559-vanilla-cupcakes-quick-bread-method I forgot to mention (see previous review) that I doubled this recipe and got 12 cupcakes + one 7-inch cake. If you want a bigger cake, i'd just do 2.5 recipes or so. For the cupcakes I filled the liners 2/3 full, not half, and in my oven they were perfect at 19 minutes. The cake took 11 extra minutes. I removed the cupcakes and left the cake in and everything turned out fine. Another excellent variation is to add 1/3 cup unsweetened dark cocoa powder (plus the white or regular chocolate chips). Absolutely delicious. ]]> Wed, 28 Nov 2012 15:16:39 -0500 559-1133 http://www.veganbaking.net/cakes/cupcakes/559-vanilla-cupcakes-quick-bread-method I made these cupcakes (and used the same recipe to make a layer cake) for my daughter's bday party and got RAVE REVIEWS from people who had no idea they were vegan!!! If for any reason you are not 100% satisfied with the recipe posted, try my version and I think you'll see why I got rave reviews: for non-dairy milk I used 1/2 c. coconut milk and 1/4 cup+2T of rice milk. Since coconut milk is pretty fatty, I cut down the oil in the recipe by just a tad: I used 2T of olive oil and 2T of sunflower seed oil (didn't have any canola oil) (for a total of 1/4 cup oil). I used just 1 1/2 t of vanilla as the 2 t version seemed too strong for me. I also used 1/8 t rum extract in place of almond extract (didn't have any). I do not agree at all that these are not sweet enough. They are absolutely perfect and as a matter of fact, when using coconut and rice milk the sweetness increases, therefore I even cut out one of the T of sugar. I added white chocolate chips in the end, and decorated with lightly sweetened stabilized whipped cream. DELICIOUS. Nobody believed me that these did not contain butter or eggs. As a matter of fact, I tried a regular cupcake recipe and didn't like it nearly as well as this one, so I went with this one. Fantastic. ENJOY!!! And thank you Mattie! ]]> Wed, 28 Nov 2012 15:09:56 -0500 764-1110 http://www.veganbaking.net/cakes/cupcakes/764-pumpkin-cupcakes-with-spiced-icing I brought these in to the restaurant where I work as a taste test for Thanksgiving. My coworkers and bosses loved them and couldn't believe there was no egg! Please note- my five star rating applies only to the actual cake as I was too lazy to make the frosting. Also note- I used pumpkin puree from a fresh pumpkin that I roasted and pureed myself. (Rather than the canned stuff.) And do NOT skip the walnuts. They are SO GOOD in this!! ]]> Sun, 18 Nov 2012 05:48:56 -0500 764-1075 http://www.veganbaking.net/cakes/cupcakes/764-pumpkin-cupcakes-with-spiced-icing These were so delicious. I loved them. My family loved them. My friends loved them. HUGE success. I'm the only one who is a vegan, and no one could even tell the difference between these and non-vegan cupcakes. I even added a little more spices than in the recipes, especially more cinnamon (I LOVE cinnamon). I definitely recommend a little more spice in the frosting to cut the sweetness of the powdered sugar since you need so much of it. I'm so happy I made these though, and I definitely recommend them! ]]> Sun, 21 Oct 2012 01:14:35 -0400 764-1038 http://www.veganbaking.net/cakes/cupcakes/764-pumpkin-cupcakes-with-spiced-icing These turned out great. Everyone who tried them loved them, and they couldn't tell it was vegan. I'm definitely making them again! ]]> Mon, 01 Oct 2012 01:31:56 -0400 764-1035 http://www.veganbaking.net/cakes/cupcakes/764-pumpkin-cupcakes-with-spiced-icing These cupcakes were awesome. My only criticism was that the cake was a bit heavy and not as light and fluffy as what you would normally expect. For the icing, I used 1 cup of powdered sugar. It probably could have used a bit more to thicken it up but it was perfect for my tastes; not overly sweet. I'll definitely make these again! ]]> Sat, 29 Sep 2012 21:34:46 -0400 732-1011 http://www.veganbaking.net/cakes/cupcakes/732-banana-cupcakes-with-chocolate-peanut-butter-ganache-icing I love the sound of these cupcakes! Will be giving this recipe a go! Thanks. Poppy ]]> Thu, 30 Aug 2012 21:44:57 -0400 549-913 http://www.veganbaking.net/cakes/cupcakes/549-vanilla-cupcakes-cream-method Hey thanks ^.^ The party was magnificent and. I still make these often to the delight of the vegan boyfriend whom this recipe helped me win over. ;) Do you think that the recipe would still work if I added the zest of a lemon and replaced a couple tablespoons of the milk from the flax mixture with lemon juice? I see this recipe as enormously versatile, but I would definitely prefer to discuss subs of this acidic caliber with another science minded individual. ]]> Fri, 18 May 2012 22:01:45 -0400
