Maple Cupcakes

"These cupcakes are from the cookbook "Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World." But don't shy away thinking that they aren't going to be the most deliciously maple cupcakes ever -- they are! Though the recipe calls for sugared walnuts, I never have the time and toasted walnuts are just fine. The cupcakes pair perfectly with Creamy Maple Frosting. I've made these with whole wheat pastry flour and they turn out great either way."

  1. I am spoiled and have amazing maple syrup to use from a friend who makes it here in Quebec. I have been looking for a good maple muffin for awhile now. This one is excellent. I used buttermilk instead of the milk and vinegar combo. Made my house smell amazing!
     
  2. Very good but we use regular full fat milk (which works fine). Because we do not care for Maple syrup honey works equally well. Thought someone might like to try this version.
     
  3. these were delicious with a great maple taste. i think they were perfect with the added walnuts. i used regular skim milk and they turned out fine.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a recipe junkie and collect way too many cookbooks. But when it's time to actually make something, I quickly turn to the internet... I started avoiding meat more than 20 years ago for environmental reasons. (It takes so many resources and the pollution risks of confinement operations are huge.) I've been vegan for years now and can report that the health benefits are also real. I really don't understand why people insist on eating meat
