So I just learned in another forum about this website and I am already hooked on it!!

I though she deserved her own post. Go check it out. All healthy desserts. And many of them are vegan, raw, gluten free...but delicious. I for one cant wait to try the single lady cupcake. Here is the recipe to get you started.

Single Lady Cupcake :flowerforyou:

(makes just one cupcake)

3T flour (30g) (See directions for flour notes)
heaping 1/16th tsp salt
1T applesauce, oil, pre-melted vegan butter, or a combo (Try coconut oil. I also like 13g sbl.)
1T plus 1 tsp liquid (nondairy milk or water)
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp baking powder
Sweetener (I hate giving specific amounts, since tastebuds are so different. For normal tastebuds, 1 to 1 and 1/2 T of sugar should be about right. If you use liquid sweetener, cut back a tiny bit on the other liquid. You can also use stevia. I used 1/2 a packet, but—once again—I’d recommend at least triple that for normal tastes lol.)

Directions: Preheat the oven to 330 degrees. Mix the ingredients and pour into an oiled (or sprayed) muffin pan. Smooth top of batter. Cook for 12-15ish minutes.
.
Notes on flour: If you use whole-wheat flour for cupcakes, you’ll get a denser (more muffin-like) cake. Still yumlicious, though! I’ve used spelt flour as well as whole-wheat pastry for this particular recipe. I especially liked the spelt flour, although the ww pastry worked too. I wouldn’t recommend plain whole-wheat flour. (Also, be warned if you’ve never done fat-free baking: subbing all the oil in a recipe for applesauce will give you a gummier result. Once again, still yumlicious, but much denser than your traditional cupcake with oil.)
