Lemon Cupcakes

...

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ¼ cup rice flour
  • ¼ cup arrowroot starch
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tsp lemon extract optional or lemon zest
  • 3 Tbsp applesauce

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 ºF and line muffin baking tray with cupcake cases. You can grease them slightly with spray oil, that prevents case sticking to cupcakes.
  • In a dry bowl combine flour, arrowroot starch, salt, sugar and soda.
  • In another bowl mix together milk, applesauce and lemon extract if using.
  • Mix everything together. Make sure no lumps remain when You think You finished. And now add some lemon zest if using to have a real feel of lemon
  • Fill Your cupcake cases with batter all the way up, but do not let them spill out of the cases. Shut in the oven for 15 minutes.
  • Remove when baked and let them cool down completely if You are going to decorate them, if not make sure it won’t burn Your tongue. I am lazy today, sorry, but my frosting is store bought. No names, but it is really tasty and I was surprised it is vegan! But You can make Your own: basically whip cold coconut cream (solid part from cooled coconut milk can) with some sugar or sweetener, or use traditional buttercream frosting.
