How to make

For the recipe, use a glass with a capacity of 8.5 fl oz (250 ml).

First, wash several times and soak the raw sunflower and pumpkin seeds in cold water for about 1 hour, during which time you will prepare the vegan cupcakes.

To make homemade oat milk, soak 1/3 cup of fine oats, along with 1 and 1/4 cups of cold water in a deep container. Let them swell for about 15 minutes and then blend them with a blender. Strain the liquid through a strainer, by separating the oat pulp, since you will need it for the glaze.

In a deep bowl, mix the strained oat milk with the baking soda, apple cider vinegar, brown crystal sugar, vanilla powder and unrefined sunflower oil with a wire whisk.

While constantly stirring with the wire whisk, thicken the liquid with whole grain flour and then add the last ingredients - fine oats and crushed walnuts.

Divide the batter evenly into 12 muffin molds, which you need to have previously greased with sunflower oil (on the sides and bottom - using a silicone brush).

Bake the cupcakes at 360°F (180°C) for about 25-30 minutes.

While the cupcakes are baking, prepare the cocoa vegan glaze.

To do this - strain the soaked raw sunflower and pumpkin seeds from the water and pour them into the small jug of a nutri bullet (or powerful blender). Add the rest of the ingredients to them for the vegan glaze - oat pulp (strained oats from milk), crushed walnuts, cocoa, carob, vanilla (optional), sesame tahini, brown sugar (by taste).

Mix them with a spoon and blend them several times for a few seconds - until a fine homogeneous mixture is obtained and to achieve creaminess, when blending for the second time, add 1 tbsp. of sunflower oil and 1 tbsp. of water.

Decorate the baked cupcakes by piping out the glaze (the easiest and most convenient is as in the photos - in strips from the side to the top) and sprinkling them with a little sesame seeds on top.

Wonderful whole grain vegan cupcakes with cocoa glaze from nuts and seeds - for a healthy, special and beautiful afternoon snack!

Wonderfully delicious!
