Ingredients
 

FOR THE CUPCAKES

  • ½ cup coconut flour
  • 6 eggs
  • cups coconut sugar
  • ½ cup coconut oil
  • 2 tbsp coconut milk
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt

FOR THE FROSTING

  • 2 avocados barely ripe
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • tsp sea salt

Instructions
 

FOR THE CUPCAKES

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Line a 12 -cup muffin pan with parchment paper cupcake liners. 
  • Add all the ingredients to a large mixing bowl. Stir until all ingredients are well combined. You can use a hand mixer if you want. 
  • Evenly divide the batter into the cupcake liners. Fill them about 3/4 the way full and bake for 18-20 minutes. 
  • Allow them to cool slightly in the muffin pan before removing them.  
  • Place on a cooling rack. Once completely cool, ice them with your favorite paleo frosting.  My favorite way to top them is with my chocolate avocado pudding.  

FOR THE FROSTING

  • Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits.
  • Place all the ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend on high.  Stir if needed.
  • Refrigerate until ready to frost the cupcakes.
