I love these muffins! Cute little muffins full of yummy, awesome, sweet, cinnamon pumpkin. These Vegan Pumpkin Mini Muffins are super moist + perfectly portioned! Eggless, easy, and topped with the BEST homemade icing!
Tara’s Tips For Perfect Vegan Pumpkin Mini Muffins:
- Flour:
- I tested this recipe with all purpose flour, I have not tested alternative flours with this one. If you do, let me know!
- Sugar:
- Organic raw cane sugar or organic raw cane turbinado sugar both work.
- Icing:
- This vegan icing is SO perfect! You can make a lot and store leftovers in the refrigerator in a glass jar.
- Mix:
- You can mix these gently by hand or on the lowest setting of your stand-up mixer.
- Batter:
- One tablespoon of batter in each cup, don’t overfill the cups!
The Icing!
5 ingredients & 5 minutes. Mix everything together with a hand mixer until creamy and there you have it! The smoothest, creamiest, dreamiest vegan icing you could ever ask for! My one piece of advice is not to add too much milk. It shouldn’t need much more than 2 tablespoons. Be careful or it will be runny!
