Gluten-free cupcakes with chocolate frosting

Want to bake something special but cute? You just cannot go wrong with cupcakes. But these ones are something else. They are extra flavorful, so creamy, and perfectly soft. These gluten-free cupcakes with chocolate frosting are absolutely incredible. It's like eating birthday cake in this cute small form.

The cupcakes are perfectly flavored. Under the layer of rich chocolate frosting is vanilla cake batter that is super fluffy and soft because of the aquafaba. I whipped aquafaba for extra fluffy consistency. This step is crucial and very important in this recipe.

Aquafaba makes everything more fluffy!

If you haven't heard of aquafaba, it is basically cooking water from chickpeas. You can simply buy a can of unflavored chickpeas and eat the chickpeas and leave the water for recipes and desserts like this one.

You might think, does it really make desserts fluffy? The answer is yes. If you beat up aquafaba in a stand mixer you can achieve the consistency of beaten egg whites. Crazy, right?

I was skeptical too! But I tried it anyway, I was curious if this really works! And I was pleasantly surprised.

You can create amazing recipes using aquafaba. It is really a magical ingredient. You can prepare the creamy mousse, cupcakes, angel cake, whipping cream, frosting, and much more!

Let's make these incredible gluten-free cupcakes with chocolate frosting!

First, let's bake simple vanilla muffins. For this step you will need:

• rice flour
• gluten-free oat flour
• potato starch
• baking powder
• baking soda
• A pinch of salt
• aquafaba
• powdered sugar
• vanilla
• coconut milk only the watery part
• soy milk

In a large bowl combine dry ingredients except for sugar, which are: rice flour, gf oat four, potato starch baking powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Sift through a sifter and set aside.

In the stand mixer add aquafaba and beat until thick. This may take a few minutes, but keep an eye on it.

When it becomes really thick, just like beaten egg whites, slowly add in sugar, one tablespoon at a time.

Whisk until thick and shiny.

Next, slowly add in the flour mixture and combine until there are no lumps. The batter will be thicker, so now it's time to add coconut milk, soy milk, and vanilla. Create a creamy batter and pour into a muffin pan. Bake for about 25 minutes at 175°C (350F).

Cool down the muffins completely before decorating with frosting.

Next, prepare a bowl and add in thick part of coconut milk from a can and melted vegan chocolate. Whish until everything is combined and put into fridge for at least 1 hour.

When the muffins are baked and completely cold, and the frosting is thick, you can decorate the muffins.

Put the frosting into a piping bag and decorate the muffins. Lastly, sprinkle with sprinkles and enjoy!
