Time 40m

Yield 16 cupcakes, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 1/4 cups flour
1/2 cup almond meal
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 teaspoons matcha green tea powder
1/2 cup canola oil
1 cup almond milk (you could use soy, rice, or coconut)
4 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons almond extract
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup refined coconut oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons almond extract
4 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup water
sliced almonds (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Cakes:.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line and grease a 12-cup cupcake pan, you may need another pan for additional batter.
  • Whisk together flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, green tea powder, and sugar in large bowl.
  • Combine oil, milk, vanilla, almond extract, and vinegar in a separate bowl.
  • Add the wet mixture to dry and mix using a whisk. Don't mix until completely smooth. Lumps are good.
  • Fill the cups 3/4 full and bake for about 15 minutes until edges just barely begin to brown. Cool.
  • Frosting:.
  • Using a mixer, beat the coconut oil, vanilla, and almond extracts until combined.
  • Add the powdered sugar one cup at a time. The mixture will be crumbly.
  • Add water little by little until you reach the desired frosting consistency. YOU MAY NOT NEED TO USE ALL THE WATER.
  • Frost the cakes and decorate. For large cupcakes I made an almond flower and for the small ones I used two slices oriented vertically to like almost like two leaves.
  • Try not to eat all at once!

The cupcakes were easy to make and they turned out beautifully. The green tea flavor was a bit subtle for my taste, but the almond flavor was nice.

These cupcakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These cupcakes were a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding some extra moisture next time, maybe some sour cream or yogurt.

These cupcakes were a hit at my last party! They're so moist and flavorful, and the green tea and almond flavors pair perfectly together. I'll definitely be making these again.
