Vegan Gluten Free Cupcakes

This post was very difficult for me to write because I wanted to keep this recipe all to myself and not share it, and maybe package it somehow and sell it and then conquer the world with deliciousness, because it’s so good I’m pretty sure I would make big bucks with it. They are  healthy cupcakes, because I firmly believe that we ALL deserve cupcakes not matter what, but they are not only healthy, healthy it’s to mainstream now, they are vegan, gluten free, can be made paleo and are (kind of) refined sugar free, oh and they are packed with a truckload of protein because why not?

Yes, vegan gluten free cupcakes to the rescue

(Btw there is a great coupon at the end of this post, so keep with me!)

The frosting? you are asking me (I don’t care if you are not in fact asking me let’s talk like if this was a real conversation and not just me ranting on the internet)

well ladies and gentleman, the frosting of the vegan gluten free cupcakes is pretty much clouds of creamy heaven

and vegan, and so high in protein it should be illegal

yes you read that right this creamy goodness over there is a

Vegan Gluten Free Frosting

let me say that again Vegan Gluten free and High Protein Frosting

Oh My Gosh I Can’t Even

and it’s so good, so so good you are going to can’t even too

you are going to want to eat it with spoonfuls (not shame) and then lick it out of the bowl (a bit of shame if someone is watching but who cares?)

Ok I know I’m talking a lot and not getting you to the secret for awesomeness (aka the recipe for vegan gluten free cupcakes)

prepare, seriously prepare yourself because there is no possible way you are going to believe this

The frosting is made entirely with avocados and protein bars

AVOCADOS AND PROTEIN BARS!!!!

it’s so crazy I can’t believe how extremely good the results are

I used avocados and my favorite on the go snack Perfectly Simple Bars (you have to try them like for yesterday, because they are to die for!)

and a bit of cacao powder because I love chocolate, a couple of tablespoons of homemade hazelnut chocolate spread and to sweeten it up a tablespoon of maple syrup

and that’s pretty much it

Want the same taste without having to wait (seriously this only takes like 2 minutes so no wait at all but I can understand) just grab a bar and go they make me feel like if I’m eating this frosting on the go and me + frosting (of any kind) = happiness

ok now things to keep in mind, I made this recipe using this bars, they are what makes the frosting shine. I have not tried it with any other kind/brand/style/I think it can be bar, just so you know

You need to use ripe avocados, seriously the this.is.so.ripe.it’s.almost.rotten kind of ripe anything different will be a huge fail. Well huge fail it’s a bit to much but it would not turn out that good

and that’s it.

For the cupcake I used a gluten free baking mix (you can substitute it for a Paleo one) and used coconut sugar instead of traditional sugar

Now lets get baking

I’m going to add the frosting recipe here and the cupcake recipe in a recipe card
