Pumpkin Spice Latte Cupcakes

It’s officially Fall!!!! Which means that pumpkin spice latte is now a diet staple, so obviously I had to make pumpkin spice latte cupcakes

I loveeeee fall, like seriously love it deeeply and madly with all my heart, the temperatures are lovely (yei for not melting!!), the leaves changing colors are oh so beautiful, it’s still hot enough that I can go out and take a walk without having to wear 801724238 layers of clothing and well

pumpkins

and food

and cinnamon

and caramel

and apples

and pies

and more pumpkins

Because definitely what makes fall the best is the awesome food!!

and the pumpkins

Yes I’ one of those persons that goes after very pumpkin /pumpkin flavored /pumpkin related thing in the supermarket /restaurant I have no self control, not even a bit.

Me: Oh look another pumpkin spice granola bar covered in pumpkin cinnamon glaze!
Hubby: But you already have 5 boxes of something like that and don’t like it
Me: Yes but this is pumpkin spice WITH pumpkin glaze is totally different duh

That’s how things are around here during fall

So enough rambles about my obsession love for pumpkins and let’s continue talking about this cupcakes (which is totally going to include lots of talk about pumpkins!!)

The first thing you need to know? This pumpkin spice latte cupcakes taste just like the Starbucks coffee (I´m a dancing a bit over here while saying this!)

They are like a coffee powerhouse full of pumpkin deliciousness!!!

but in cupcake shape so it’s totally better because yo can have your coffee and eat it too

But that’s not the only thing that makes this pumpkin spice latte cupcakes shine, because they have even more greatness

And they are vegan

and can be made gluten free

I mean just like Starbucks + vegan + can be gluten free!!!

Oh and they are petty easy to make too, so you are not going to find anything better than this, ever, everevereverever

Now into the technical part of the pumpkin spice latte cupcakes

This cupcake is super super soft, and (I know a lot of you hate that word) moist so you have to handle them with care when taking them out of the oven, the are delicate (and delicious!!!)

If you want to make the frosting vegan make sure to use a vegan butter

If you want to make the cupcake gluten free substitute the flour for a 1 for 1 gluten free baking mix. I tried it with a all purpose gluten free flour and the result was just the same as with traditional flour so pick your favorite brand

You can find the recipe for the frosting here

Now to the kitchen!
