- Preheat your oven to 350F.

- Line or grease a 6-muffin silicone or tin tray.

- Mix your hot water and coconut manna together until it is well combined and smooth.

- Mix in your granulated sweetener, salt, vanilla, and flax. Let this sit after stirring to make sure it is well mixed.

- In an additional bowl, mix together your coconut flour and baking powder.

- Add in your flour mixture slowly and stir it thoroughly until everything is smooth and there are no lumps.

- Divide this evenly into your muffin tray and bake until the edges are barely starting to get a golden hue and the tops are firm. This should take about 20 to 25 minutes.

- Remove muffins from the oven.

- Let cool for a few hours or transfer them to your freezer for a mere 30 minutes.

- Frost and enjoy!

 

It is important to note that your cupcakes must set completely before you attempt to remove them or they may fall apart. So make sure they are thoroughly chilled. Of course, using a liner may prevent this.

I can’t even believe it, but these cupcakes were great! The recipe really looks like it won’t work, but I followed it to a T and it was great. one thing I will say is that matcha is missing from the ingredients. I added about a tbsp :)
