Delicious Vegan Peanut Butter Cupcakes

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Vegan Peanut Butter Cupcakes.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 12-cup muffin pan by greasing it or lining it with paper baking cups. This will ensure your cupcakes come out easily and look great!

2. Step 2

   In a measuring cup, combine the soy milk and distilled white vinegar. Let this mixture sit for about 5 minutes. This step is crucial as it helps thicken the soy milk, giving your cupcakes a lovely texture.

3. Step 3

   In a large mixing bowl, stir together the crunchy peanut butter, canola oil, white sugar, honey, vanilla extract, and flax seed meal. Mix these ingredients well until they are fully combined and creamy. Then, gently fold in the thickened soy milk mixture.

4. Step 4

   In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring just until everything is blended. Don’t worry if the batter is a bit lumpy; that’s perfectly fine!

5. Step 5

   Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, making sure to divide it evenly among them. This will help ensure that all your cupcakes bake uniformly.

6. Step 6

   Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. You’ll know they’re done when the tops spring back lightly when pressed. The aroma will be irresistible!

7. Step 7

   Once baked, allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This step is important to prevent them from becoming soggy.

8. Step 8

   When the cupcakes are cool, arrange them on a serving platter. Feel free to frost them with your favorite frosting or enjoy them plain for a delightful treat!
