100% WHOLE GRAIN MOIST CHOCOLATE EINKORN CUPCAKES

Prep Time15 minutes
Cook Time25 minutes
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Servings: 12 cupcakes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole grain Einkorn flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup raw cacao powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup melted butter, or ghee
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup hot water

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  • Line 12-muffin pan with paper liners.
  • Combine whole grain einkorn flour, sugar, cacao, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
  • In a large bowl, combine eggs, milk, butter and vanilla; whisk well.
  • Add dry ingredients to the wet, and mix to combine.
  • Add hot water and mix again (the batter will be very liquid).
  • Fill the cupcake liners 3/4 full and transfer to the oven.
  • Bake for 22-25 minutes. Don't go longer, or the cupcakes won't be gooey moist (although they'll still be good!).
  • Frost cupcakes after they cool down completely.

Notes

This recipe is also great for making cake. I used it to make my daughter's birthday cake recently. I separated the batter in two, and baked the layers in a cake pan lined with parchment paper. I used  buttercream frosting, and the cake came out super moist and yummy.
