Fall baking

Thursday, October 29th, 2009

From Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World I present to you Cookies n’ Cream vegan cupcakes. Newman O’s are the star ingredient in this recipe, and they are delicious.

Dark skies and rain outside, sweet smells of baking inside.

Be sure to not attempt piping frosting with these cupcakes, the Newman-O chunks will get stuck.

My house smelled of pumpkin goodness while making these, the aroma in you home they create is enough reason to make them. They are a perfect Fall day recipe. I have all the ingredients and amounts on sparkrecipes…

Yummy low fat vegan banana bread enhanced with pretty slices of banana on top inspired by veggiegirl for a more rustic look

So delicious and low fat. Nutrition info and recipe can be found in my recipe box here

My recipe was inspired form the famous Veganomicon book! My recipe makes 15 slices and each are roughly 155 calories. Perfect morning on the go snack, plus it fills your home with amazing aromas in the oven.

The addition of chocolate chips are optional, but make this bread a sweeter treat.

Sweet + Savory

Perfectly golden top and gooey inside! You must make this amazing recipe.

Toppings are the most fun:) Vegan Newman O’s, vegan chocolate covered almonds, vegan chocolate chips, vegan sprinks, vegan licorice, dried fruit, culinary lavender…

These cupcakes instantly make me happy, as well as anyone else who looks their way.

The butter cream frosting reminds me of fluffly clouds, and tastes like heaven.

The cakes themselves are “springy,” delicately spongy as well as perfectly moist and crumbly all at the same time. I truly adore them.

The recipe from VCTOTW (though with my exact ingredients) includes:
Organic unsweetened soymilk
Apple Cider Vinegar
Organic Vanilla Extract
Organic Evaporated Cane Juice Sugar
Organic Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
Organic Canola Oil
Organic Baking Soda (aluminum free)
Organic Baking Powder (aluminum free)
Sea Salt

And the super amazing fluffy vanilla butter cream frosting includes:
Organic Vegan Shortening
Organic Vegan Buttery Sticks
Organic Powdered Sugar
Vanill Extract
Soymilk Creamer
