Vegan/Allergen-Free Chocolate Cupcakes
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour (the original recipe calls for cake flour, but it turns out just fine without, in case you don't have it)
- ¾ cup sugar
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 5 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1¼ cups water
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees and prepare cupcake pans with wrappers
- In a medium bowl, lightly mix together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, mix together oil, vinegar, vanilla, and water until well combined. Add dry ingredient mixture and mix until smooth.
- Pour batter into cupcake tins, filling each cup ½ to ¾ full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, rotating pan halfway through cooking, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
- Immediately remove cupcakes from muffin tin and transfer to a wire rack to let cool.
- Frost and enjoy!
