10 Vegan Christmas Cupcakes
Looking for the tastiest vegan Christmas cupcakes? Look no further. This post has 10 of the very best festive flavoured cupcakes for the holiday season. Includes gluten-free, allergen-friendly recipes too so the whole family can bake together!
A lot of my readers are new to vegan baking and often ask me which recipes they should start with. I almost always recommend either cookies or cupcakes because they are the easiest!
Vegan cupcakes are so straight forward. You can make them with just a few simple ingredients and they make minimal mess. As long as you’re careful about measuring the ingredients accurately and baking at the correct temperature, they are pretty much foolproof. Plus, there are so many variations of flavours you could make.
I’ve already created a vegan cupcakes round-up post for my blog but since it’s December, I thought I’d create a list of my favourite vegan Christmas cupcakes. This is for anyone who loves a bit of festive baking!
I used some of my own recipes and a few recipes from other vegan food bloggers. Make sure to check out their blogs and show some love. Hope you enjoy!
