Directions

Muffin-Cupcakes

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 F and line a standard muffin tin with 12 baking cups. Measure 1 Cup Good Karma plant milk in a liquid measuring cup and stir in lemon juice. Let sit a few minutes.  

  2. Combine 1 Cup Good Karma all ingredients up through maple syrup in a high speed blender together and blend to form a thick but pourable batter. If needed, thin out with a little additional Flaxmilk. 

  3. Transfer the batter to a mixing bowl and fold in the carrots, pineapple, coconut and other addends, if using. Spoon or pour batter into the prepared tin, filling each cup generously (almost to the top).  

  4. Bake 30 minutes, or until the tops are firm to the touch. Let cool before serving with sour cream or frosting. Enjoy! 

Vegan Sour Cream Frosting

  1. In a mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to blend vegan butter with Good Karma sour cream and vanilla. Gradually add powdered sugar, beginning with 1 Cup then increasingly approximately ½ Cup at a time until you reach your desired consistency and sweetness.
