Chef's tip
Choose a gluten-free baking blend labeled 1:1 or cup-for-cup and use the same amount. Almond and coconut flour won't work the same way.
1 cup granulated sugar
Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Baking behavior varies by blend: some brown faster or stay softer, while others brown less. Follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
1 ½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
1 cup plant-based milk
⅓ cup neutral oil (such as canola or sunflower)
Chef's tip
Avocado oil is neutral and handles high heat, making it a good all-purpose swap.
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp lemon zest (from about 2 lemons)
1 tsp vanilla extract

For the frosting

½ cup vegan butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
Chef's tip
Follow the package's conversion to powdered sugar. In frosting or glaze, add liquid gradually - replacements can absorb it differently.
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1–2 tbsp plant-based milk (to adjust consistency)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
2
