Print Recipe

6 large or 9 small

ingredients

Cupcakes
2 flax eggs
2 Tbsp of vanilla yoghurt
2 Tbsp of unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1 tsp of vanilla
3/4 cup (packed) almond flour
1/4 cup cacao powder see product
1/4 cup coconut sugar or golden monk fruit sweetener/ granulated sweetener of choice see product
1/2-1 tsp instant espresso powder or 1 pk mocha before you speak coffee (reg or decaf)
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp of baking soda
A pinch of salt
Filling
2 Tbsp black cherry (or strawberry) jam - I use 100% fruit ♥
Frosting
1 cup of whipping cream (coconut or regular)
1 tsp of vanilla extract
1-2 Tbsp of powdered sugar ( I used monk fruit but regular icing sugar is totally fine) - more or less to taste
6 (or 9) fresh cherries
Dark chocolate, roughly chopped see product
A dusting of cacao - optional see product

method

Step 1Heat oven to 175C/350C and mix cupcake ingredients in a bowl and transfer to a lined cupcake or muffin tin
Step 2Bake for 10-12 mins until a skewer comes out clean and allow to cool
Step 3Whip the cream and set aside
Step 4Use a knife to cut a hole in the top/center of each cupcake. You can skip this step & just slather the jam over the top but I promise it’s worth the effort (& mess) to get the oozey, jammy, burst of deliciousness when you bite in
Step 5Fill w/ 1/2-1 tsp black cherry jam
Step 6Top w/ whipped cream
Step 7Sprinkle w/ dark choc, cacao, top w/ an extra cherry
Step 8Eat and enjoy!
