Time 40m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup soymilk
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (or white vinegar)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder (Dutch processed or regular)
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Line muffin pan with baking cups (paper or foil).
  • Whisk together soy milk and vinegar in a large bowl, and set aside to curdle. Add sugar, oil, and vanilla to the soy mixture and beat until frothy.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining dry ingredients.
  • Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture in two batches beating until smooth, with no large lumps remaining.
  • Pour the batter into prepared baking cups, filling them to three quarters full.
  • Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of one of the cupcakes comes out clean.
  • Transfer cupcakes to cooling rack and allow to cool completely.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
  • Follow the recipe carefully: Don't skip any steps or substitute ingredients unless you know what you're doing. Cupcakes are a delicate balance of ingredients, and even small changes can affect the outcome.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your cupcakes will taste. Look for fresh eggs, butter, and milk, and use high-quality flour and sugar.
  • Preheat your oven: This is essential for ensuring that your cupcakes bake evenly. Preheat your oven to the temperature specified in the recipe before you start baking.
  • Fill your cupcake liners only 2/3 full: This will prevent them from overflowing and making a mess in your oven.
  • Bake your cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that they are cooked through without overbaking them.
  • Let your cupcakes cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting to set properly and prevent it from melting.
  • Have fun! Baking cupcakes is a great way to relax and be creative. Experiment with different flavors and decorations to find your own favorite recipes.

Conclusion:

With a little practice, you'll be able to bake perfect cupcakes every time. Just remember to follow the tips above, and you'll be sure to impress your friends and family with your delicious creations.
