Ingredients
Cupcakes
- 1/2 cup Organic Times Coconut Flour
- 1/2 tsp Organic Times Baking Powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/3 cup coconut oil (melted)
- 2 tbsp milk
- 2 tsp vanilla bean extract
Frosting
- 50 grams Organic Times Salted Butter (softened)
- 2-3 cups Organic Times Icing Sugar
- 90 grams white chocolate (roughly chopped)
- 4 tbsp milk
- fresh raspberries (for decoration)
- Organic Times Icing Sugar (for dusting)
Method
Cupcakes
- Preheat oven to 180ºC (356ºF) and line a cupcake pan with patty liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine coconut flour, baking powder and salt together.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, honey, coconut oil, milk and vanilla until smooth.
- Add dry mixture into wet, mix until well combined.
- Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake patties. Filling them 3/4 of the way full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
- Cool in pan for 10mins.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Frosting
- In a double boiler over low-medium heat, melt white chocolate, stirring occasionally.
- Once completely melted, turn off heat, set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add butter. Whisk for 30 seconds or until just soft.
- Gradually add icing sugar, 1 cup at a time.
- Between additions of icing sugar, add milk, 1 tablespoon at a time. Add melted white chocolate and beat mixture for a further 1-2 minutes or until light and fluffy.
Assembly
- Once cupcakes have completely cooled, pipe frosting, using a size 7 round piping tip.
- Place one raspberry on each cupcake.
- Dust with icing sugar.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Cupcakes will keep in an airtight container, refrigerated or in the pantry, for up to 4 - 6 days.
- Add raspberries when serving cupcakes straight away. This will ensure the raspberries do not melt into the frosting.
