    I can't believe they are Vegan Chocolate Cupcakes

    November 7, 2017 Filed Under: Cakes, Desserts

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    Do you want to bake a special treat for someone that is vegan? These chocolate cupcakes are delicious and quite nutritious using oats instead of wheat flour making them safe for most people on Gluten Free diets.

    Vegan Chocolate Cupcakes are gluten free and casein free (assuming you use gluten free oats and other ingredients). #glutenfree #vegan #cupcakes

    If your oats are "gluten free" than this recipe is also gluten free. If the oats aren't labeled as such they may be processed in a facility that processes wheat, rye and other ingredients that might contaminate them.
