1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
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 organic cane 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
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
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.
2 tsp vanilla extract

For the frosting

1 cup vegan butter, softened
3 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.
2–3 tbsp plant-based milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 pinch salt

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
2
Stir together the 1 cup plant-based milk and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl or measuring cup and set aside for 5 minutes until slightly curdled — this is your vegan buttermilk.
