Instructions
 

Cupcakes

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
  • In a stand mixer or large bowl, mix together coconut oil, maple syrup, eggs and vanilla extract with a mixer or whisk
  • In a separate bowl, whisk tapioca flour, coconut flour, baking powder, beet powder and salt together
  • Slowly mix the dry mixture in with the wet mixture, adding ΒΌ cup at a time until well mixed
  • Scoop your batter into muffin liners in a muffin pan. Fill each well 2/3 of the way and you should get 10 cupcakes
  • Place in oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until cooked through. Use a toothpick to poke through a muffin to make sure the toothpick comes out clean

Frosting

  • Combine the palm shortening, maple syrup, vanilla, tapioca flour and coconut flour in the bowl of a stand mixer with a whisk attachment or a large mixing bowl
  • Using the stand mixer or a hand mixer, beat until smooth
  • Add your chilled coconut milk and beat until well combined. Do not over mix or your frosting might seperate
  • Once your cupcakes are completely cool, use immediately by placing in a piping bag or ziploc bag with a corner cut off to frost your cupcakes
