Made these cupcakes last night at midnight for a vegan potluck 🎃 Pumpkin spice cupcakes with cinnamon “cream cheese” frosting. Dusted with cinnamon sugar.
Cupcakes: 1 ¾ cups all purpose flour 1 ¼ cups sugar ¼ cup coconut sugar 1 tablespoon baking powder 1 teaspoon cinnamon 2 teaspoons pumpkin spice (Or ½ tsp nutmeg & ginger, ¼ tsp allspice & cloves) 1 ¼ cup pureed pumpkin (fresh or from a can) 1 1/8 cup coconut milk (cream) ½ cup cashew milk ½ cup vegetable oil
Bake at 350 for ~18 minutes. Should be springy to the touch and a toothpick inserted should come out clean. (Allow to cool completely before icing)
Frosting: ½ cup vegan butter ¼ cup vegetable shortening 1 cup Daiya cream cheese 2 teaspoons of cinnamon 4 cups icing sugar (more or less depending on how sweet you like it)
