This gluten-free and egg-free cupcake recipe uses unrefined ingredients to create a delicious and moist vegan cupcake. Reduce the spices and use this recipe for your child’s first birthday cake! I like to frost these with the Dairy-Free Buttercream Frosting (using white-fleshed sweet potatoes) and decorate them with finely grated fresh nutmeg.
