Hi! Love this recipe, I’ve made it a lot of times and it’s my go-to chocolate cupcake! I always substitute the oil for an equal amount of peanut butter with amazing results–usually I add a couple of tablespoons of water though if it feels a bit too thick (but I also usually add an extra spoon of cocoa powder since I like my cupcakes darker.

Quick question though: would this work as a sheet cake, in a 9×13 inch pan? I was considering roughly the same baking time since it would be a thinner pan but wider, and maybe increasing the quantities to 1.5x. Thoughts?

In reply to Jacqui. Hi, just made them today. I used regular flour and 1/2 t baking soda worked great. I did use plain vegan yogurt instead of the applesauce. I had 1 open. I use it in salad dressing.They are super dark but are amazing. Sometimes really dark is bitter. They were fluffy and did not taste of vinegar or baking soda. Some recipes that use more you can taste them.

These are absolutely the best cupcakes I have ever made. My son has allergies and these are the best, hands down that I have ever tried. Thanks soooo much!

If using coconut oil, is it 1.4 cup solid or 1/4 cup after melting it? Thank you.

Oh man! Absolutely delicious. I wouldn’t even know they were vegan if I didn’t make them. They held together beautifully and puffed up just like a regular cupcake! I used the applesauce binder and ACV for my cupcakes. Also didn’t do the Dutch because I didn’t have any, will try next time! Thank you for the recipe!! My new go-to!

Absolutely delicious! I used extra creamy oat milk in place of water and they are amazing! My husband says it is one of the best cupcakes he’s ever had! Thank you for this recipe!!!
