Ingredients:
Wet ingredients 1:
¾ cup plain or vanilla soy milk or other nondairy milk
1 ½ teaspoons apple cider vinegar
Wet ingredients 2:
½ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup light brown sugar
¼ cup neutral vegetable oil
1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients:
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg or cloves
Frosting:
1 cup butter / margarine
4 cups confectioners’ sugar
2 tablespoons plain milk
1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
¾ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground allspice, nutmeg or cloves
Method:
Preparation:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the milk and vinegar and set aside. ( Milk will curdle but it is OK)
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg. Mix to combine.
- In a large bowl, combine both the sugars, oil, and vanilla. Stir in the milk mixture. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until smooth.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared tin about ⅔ full and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool completely on wire rack before frosting.
Frosting:
- In a large bowl, cream the butter with an electric mixer on high speed until light and fluffy.
- Add the sugar, milk, spices, and vanilla and mix until thoroughly combined. Continue mixing for about 2 minutes until the frosting is smooth and stiff.
- When the cupcakes are completely cool, frost them with the frosting. Decorate it with candied ginger. Store in a tightly sealed container.
