Gluten and Dairy Free Chocolate Cupcakes (with sugar free icing!)
- healthy desserts, Healthy Snacks, Lunchbox Food, Recipes
Sometimes the ‘healthy’ version of recipes can disappoint but I promise you, these gluten and dairy free chocolate cupcakes are AMAZING.
They’re the perfect healthy snack for kids or as a treat for birthday parties.
You won’t believe how much they taste like mud cake and the sugar free icing on top is what makes them next level YUM.
Out of all of my gluten, dairy and refined sugar free cupcakes and muffin recipes I have to say this is probably my favourite!
(And of course you can just go ahead and use regular icing sugar! I just like using the low sugar option if I’m planning on having these as a snack, not a one off thing).
Dairy Free Gluten Free Chocolate Mudcake Muffins
Super rich and moist muffins that are just like a mudcake! Made with coconut flour and a delicious sugar free icing!
Servings: 9 muffins
Ingredients
- 3 TBS coconut oil
- 1 tsp vanilla

- 1 cup canned coconut milk
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/3 cup cocoa
- 25 g dark chocolate
Sugar Free Icing
- 1 TBS tapioca flour
- 2 TBS stevia blend erythirol
- 1 TBS cocoa powder
- Leftover Coconut Milk 1-2TBS
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180C and line a muffin tray.
- Mix coconut flour, sugar, baking powder and cocoa together in a bowl. Then add eggs, vanilla, coconut milk and oil whisking together well until all combined and no lumps. Break dark chocolate into chunks (or use chips) and stir though.
- Pour into lined muffin tray and bake for 25mins or until toothpick comes out of the centre clean.
- Sugar Free Icing: Blend stevia and tapioca flour in NutriBullet a couple of times until it becomes powdery. I mixed that with 1 TBS cocoa powder, and leftover coconut milk from the can (about 1 TBS) until desired consistency formed.
