Vegan Chocolate Cupcakes Recipe

Name: Vegan Chocolate Cupcakes
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 25 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 10 servings
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar; 1.5 tsp baking powder; 1 teaspoon baking soda; 1 cup canola oil; 1 cup cocoa powder; 1.5 cups flour; 0.75 cup granulated sugar; 0.5 teaspoon salt; 0.125 cup soy milk; 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

These chocolate cupcakes are entirely vegan, using a simple trick with soy milk and apple cider vinegar to create a dairy-free "buttermilk" that keeps them moist. They come together quickly, with the dry ingredients whisked into the wet until just combined. You'll have a batch ready for frosting in about 45 minutes, including baking and cooling time.
