Ingredients
  • Cupcakes:
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1¾ cup non dairy milk
  • ½ cup unsweetened passion fruit juice
  • ½ cup water
  • ½ cup non dairy butter
  • 1½ teaspoon Ener-G egg replacer
  • 1½ cup granulated vegan sugar
  • 2½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Frosting:
  • 1 cup lucuma flour
  • 1 cup confectioners sugar
  • 1½ cup vegan butter
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
Instructions
  1. Turn the oven to 350-375 F.
  2. Mix the flour, baking powder and salt.
  3. Beat the egg replacer with the water, and add milk and passionfruit, stirring well.
  4. In a mixer, beat the sugar and butter until creamy. Then add the milk and flour in small portions, alternating until you've added all.
  5. Add vanilla at the end, and bake for 15-20 minutes.
  6. *The baking time can vary from oven to oven, so check the cupcakes after 10 minutes. If a knife comes out clean after you stick it in one of the cupcakes, it means they are ready. If not, keep baking, and check every 5 minutes until done.
  7. For the frosting:
  8. Mix the vegan butter in a mixer, until creamy, and start adding lucuma flour and sugar little by little. Add the vanilla and mix well to incorporate.
Notes
*Other good combinations with the lucuma frosting are chocolate or vanilla cupcakes.
