No one would know that Nutiva’s Double Chocolate Cupcakes are gluten-free!
Ingredients
  • ⅓ cup Nutiva Organic Coconut Flour
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ cup cocoa powder
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ cup Nutiva Organic Buttery Spread
  • 1¼ cup Nutiva Organic Coconut Sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup milk (can be substituted with almond, hemp or coconut milk)
  • ¼ cup chocolate Chips (tossed in flour)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line cupcake tin with cupcake liners.
  2. Mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cocoa powder, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together coconut sugar and buttery spread. This mixture will be soft, fluffy and crumbly. Whisk in vanilla extract, then whisk in eggs one at a time until fully incorporated.
  4. Alternate sifting dry mixture and milk into sugar, butter and egg mix.
  5. Fold in chocolate chips, mixing well to distribute them evenly.
  6. Scoop batter into cups, filling each halfway and mixing intermittently to keep chocolate chips from sinking to the bottom.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out cleanly from the center of a cupcake.
  8. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before frosting and serving.
