Vegan Sweet Potato Chocolate Cupcakes

Seen many recipes of Vegan Sweet Potato Chocolate Cupcakes, had never thought we could make cup cake out of sweet potato. Thought why not give it try and decided will make with out any flour, milk, eggs or butter, healthy but tasty 😊. It’s been a journey in cooking my expedition 😊 trying out many things and getting into uncharted territories.

So, saw many recipes of Vegan Sweet Potato Chocolate Cupcake and made my own recipe and set out to try it out. The star ingredients here are sweet potato puree, oats flour and chia seeds. The result is amazing and unbelievable and you can see it for yourself.

These are healthy vegan sweet potato chocolate cupcakes, which contain far more nutrition and less sugar than our usual everyday cupcake we see, yet they taste every bit like a normal cupcake one would want them to.

And more so, sweet potatoes are an excellent source of beta-carotene (Vitamin A), not to mention loads of vitamin C, vitamin B6, potassium and dietary fiber to be top it off among other amazing nutrients and we have oats to add the fibre and protein.

The other star ingredient i.e. Oats, which have tried replacing the Refined flour is highly nutritious, rich with anti-oxidants, contains a powerful soluble fibre called “Beta-Glucan”. .so, all in all sweet potato cupcakes are highly nutritious and healthy to have. One can use oats flour if you get at your place, have finely grinded Quaker Oats to Powder and used them in the recipe for Vegan Sweet Potato Chocolate Cupcake.
