Coconut Flour Vanilla Cupcakes (Candida Diet Friendly) image

I adapted these from another recipe found on the net. I made them a little less sweet/fatty. The result is fantastic! I am obsessed with these delicious vanilla goodies! They are good even without the frosting, but with frosting - divine!

Time 32m

Yield 12 muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup coconut flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
6 large eggs
1/3 cup coconut oil, melted and cooled
1/2 cup yacon syrup (or other sweetener if not following Candida Diet)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (use alcohol-free)
1/2 cup butter (softened)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (use alcohol-free)
1/4 cup yacon syrup (or powdered yacon if you can find it)

Steps:

  • Preheat over to 350 degrees Farenheit.
  • Line 12 muffin tins with muffin liners or grease with coconut oil.
  • In a large bowl, sift together coconut flour, baking soda and sea salt.
  • In a medium bowl, using a fork or whisk, beat together eggs, 1 TB vanilla, oil and yacon syrup until well mixed.
  • Add wet ingredients slowly to dry ingredients and mix very well with a wooden spoon or spatula.
  • Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop batter into 12 even portions in muffin tins.
  • Bake for 20-22 minutes.
  • Cool.
  • For Frosting, beat together butter, 1 TB vanilla and yacon syrup or powder with a hand mixer or wooden spoon until light and fluffy.
  • Spread frosting on cupcakes.
  • Enjoy!
  • Can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. But they probably won't last that long.
  • Tip: The Yacon has powerful digestive-aiding properties. Don't eat too many or you may get a stomach ache!
