These taste amazing and are quick to make! You can play around and substitute different milks, oils and extracts; just about any will work. I've listed my favorites. Unfortunately, this recipe doesn't rise well as a cake, but cupcakes are more fun anyway! These are great with a simple frosting of cocoa powder, powdered sugar and orange juice.

Tips for Making the Best Vegan Coconut Cupcakes:

  • Use full-fat coconut milk: This will give your cupcakes a richer flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make your cupcakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the cupcake liners only 2/3 full: This will prevent them from overflowing in the oven.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that they are cooked through.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting to set properly.
