Cupcakes

125g gluten-free plain flour
125g gluten-free oat flour
1 heaped teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
¾ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
pinch salt
170g caster sugar
12ml (about 1 tablespoon) white wine vinegar
200 – 250ml plant-based milk
75g dairy-free margarine, melted
vanilla extract

Place 12 large cupcake cases into a muffin tin.

Preheat oven to 180°c /160°c fan oven / gas mark 4.

Weigh the gluten-free plain flour, gluten-free oat flour, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda, into a large mixing bowl. Stir then sieve together at least twice to fully distribute the baking powder. Alternatively blend together in a food processor.

Add the caster sugar and salt and stir together.

Melt the dairy-free margarine. Add the plant-based milk and vinegar. Stir into the dry ingredients with the vanilla. It should be the consistency of a smooth thick batter. Add more plant-based milk if necessary.

Divide the mixture between the cake cases and cook in the centre of the oven for 20 – 25 minutes until golden brown and a knife inserted into the centre comes out clean. Leave to cool on a wire rack.
Decorate as required.

*for chocolate cupcakes – replace 25g self-raising flour with 25g cocoa powder. You will need to add a drop more plant-based milk.
