Spiced Apple Walnut Cupcakes (Eggless)


I am always on the lookout for eggless cakes and found this recipe in the Vegan Family Cookbook. I was able to use up some apples lying around for a while and they turned out so delicious that they vanished in a day. Here's how I made them (makes 12 cupcakes) by tweaking the original recipe a bit:

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup plain flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon pwd
1/4 tsp nutmeg pwd
1/2 tsp allspice
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp bkg pwd
1/2 cup olive oil
3/4 cup milk
1 apple - peeled, cored and grated
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Combine the first 8 dry ingredients in a glass bowl. Add the olive oil and mix well. Add the milk, mix. Stir in the grated apple and chopped walnuts. Put 2 tbsp of this mix into each cup of an oiled muffin pan. Bake in a pre-heated 375 F oven for about 20 mins.

Cool and remove the muffins. Enjoy as is or frost and decorate if desired (as done by my daughter in the pic above).
