I adapted these from another recipe found on the net. I made them a little less sweet/fatty. The result is fantastic! I am obsessed with these delicious vanilla goodies! They are good even without the frosting, but with frosting - divine!

ingredients

³⁄₄ cup coconut flour
¹⁄₂ teaspoon baking soda
¹⁄₂ teaspoon sea salt
6 large eggs
¹⁄₃ cup coconut oil, melted and cooled
¹⁄₂ cup yacon syrup (or other sweetener if not following Candida Diet)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (use alcohol-free)
for the frosting
¹⁄₂ cup butter (softened)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (use alcohol-free)
¹⁄₄ cup yacon syrup (or powdered yacon if you can find it)

directions

Preheat over to 350 degrees Farenheit.
Line 12 muffin tins with muffin liners or grease with coconut oil.
In a large bowl, sift together coconut flour, baking soda and sea salt.
In a medium bowl, using a fork or whisk, beat together eggs, 1 TB vanilla, oil and yacon syrup until well mixed.
Add wet ingredients slowly to dry ingredients and mix very well with a wooden spoon or spatula.
Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop batter into 12 even portions in muffin tins.
Bake for 20-22 minutes.
Cool.
For Frosting, beat together butter, 1 TB vanilla and yacon syrup or powder with a hand mixer or wooden spoon until light and fluffy.
Spread frosting on cupcakes.
Enjoy!
Can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. But they probably won't last that long.
Tip: The Yacon has powerful digestive-aiding properties. Don't eat too many or you may get a stomach ache!

I made these cupcakes tonight and love them! The texture is very close to regular cupcakes and I love how simple the recipe is, these turned out perfectly. I used vegan butter instead of regular butter, and I couldn’t find yacon syrup so I used Lakanto “classic” monk fruit sweetener with erythritol instead. I’m so happy I can eat sweets again without feeling the consequences. Thank you so much.
