Cupcakes so soft and fluffy… no-one will ever guess they're low-fat! This website showcases many healthier versions of our favourite desserts and with my dietary restrictions, these are just some the treats I still enjoy.

Skinny Vanilla Cupcakes

(makes 9-10 cupcakes)
Ingredients:
1 cup spelt flour, or white flour, or Arrowhead Mills gf mix (140g)
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp ener g powder, or 1 tbs ground flaxmeal
4 tbsp xylitol or sugar (54g)
2 Nunatural stevia packets (or 2 extra tbsp sugar)
1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup plain or vanilla yogurt of choice (Silk or SoDelicious both work) (230g)
1/4 cup milk of choice (60g)
3 tbsp coconut or veg oil (can omit, but the cupcakes will be a bit gummy) (36g)
add 1/2 tsp xanthan gum if using the gf mix

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 F, and grease muffin tins. Combine all wet ingredients with the energ or flax, and stir vigorously. In a separate bowl, combine all remaining dry ingredients, and mix very well. Pour wet into dry, and mix until just combined (don’t overmix). Cook 18-20 minutes, then let sit at least 10 before removing from muffin tins.
Enjoy!
