VEGAN BANANA COCONUT CUPCAKES
Steps:
- If using coconut milk rather than cream, put 2 tins of full fat coconut milk into the fridge for a minimum of 48 hours. The longer it chills the better so put it into the fridge as soon as you start thinking of making these cupcakes (mine was in the fridge for 10 days). After the time has passed, remove the tins from the fridge very carefully, make sure you do not shake them. Open the tins and scoop out heavy cream that should have risen to the top (see picture below). Leave the watery part for other uses (curries, smoothies etc.). Each tin should yield about 180 ml of cream. Choose coconut milk with no additives (mine is 60% coconut and 40% water) as stabilisers will prevent the cream from separating.
- Put desiccated coconut (no need to pan-roast) into a food processor. Process until coconut releases its natural oils and you get a fairly smooth coconut butter (similar to any nut butter). From time to time, stop the machine to scrape coconut of the walls with a rubber spatula. Depending on your food processor, it may take anything between 5-15 minutes to make this butter. I have a budget food processor and mine took about 8 minutes with a few breaks so that I don't kill the motor. 100 g of coconut should give you a bit under ½ cup of butter.
- In a mixing bowl, fold about 80 ml (3/8 cup or 5 tbsp) coconut butter into 1 and ½ cup coconut cream. Sweeten with maple syrup. Do not use an electric mixer or food processor to do this as coconut will continue to release its oils and the mixture will become very grainy. Fold it gently using a spoon. The frosting will have tiny bits of coconut in it, but I found the overall texture to be smooth enough. Chill the frosting for 1-2 hours before piping.
- Warm up the oven to 190° C.
- In one bowl, combine all dry ingredients. In another bowl combine all wet ingredients.
- Pour wet ingredients into the dry ones and stir until just combined - do not overmix.
- Grease standard 12 cupcake tin with a bit of coconut oil. Spoon the cupcake mixture into the tin.
- Bake for about 27-30 minutes, the exact time depends on the individual oven. Remove from the oven and let them cool down completely.
- While cupcakes are in the oven, make the caramel. Put sugar into a dry frying pan and let it dissolve gently on very low heat. Refrain from stirring it.
- Warm up coconut milk gently - this is not essential, but it will reduce splattering once you add coconut milk into dissolved sugar.
- Once the sugar melts completely and the sugar turns to an amber colour (careful not to overdo it - caramel burns very quickly), whisk 1/2 cup of coconut milk into the sugar until combined.
- Warm it up again slowly until bubbles start to appear on the surface, then add the rest of coconut milk and a pinch of salt. Stir the mixture well, let it bubble for a bit and take off the heat. Let it cool before decorating the cupcakes - it will thicken slightly as it cools.
- Using a bread knife, cut each cupcake horizontally into 3 pieces.
- Spread caramel on the first layer, then put banana slices on top. Repeat the same for the next layer and cover with the top slice.
- Pipe coconut frosting on to the top slice and sprinkle the frosting with finely grated chocolate.

COCONUT SUGAR CARROT-BANANA CUPCAKES WITH COCONUT SUGAR MERINGUE FROSTING
Coconut sugar is made from the evaporated sap of the coconut palm tree (which means it's not coconut flavored) and has a bold, exotic sweetness that pairs incredibly well with so many fruits and spices. Coconut sugar also makes for the most glorious, creamy meringue frosting for these cupcakes, giving the topping an hint of salted caramel flavor, without having to make caramel!

Steps:
- For the cupcakes: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, salt and ginger.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, yogurt, oil, vanilla extract, banana, carrots, and egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and fold to blend well. Fill the cups of the muffin tin about halfway with the batter. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the tops of the cupcakes spring back when lightly pressed, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Cool in the pan for 3 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely (cooling the cupcakes in the pan completely will make them tough).
- For the frosting: In the heatproof bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine the sugar, salt and egg whites. Place the bowl over a saucepan of gently simmering water to create a double boiler (make sure there is space between the water and the bottom of the bowl). Whisking by hand, heat the mixture until slightly thickened, a bit lighter in color and hot to the touch; a candy thermometer dipped into the mixture should reach 160 degrees F (very important so that the frosting will whip up firmly!). Return the bowl to the stand mixer. Whip the mixture on high speed until very thick, fluffy and pale latte in color, 5 to 10 minutes depending on your mixer. The frosting is done when it's very stiff and the bowl is completely cool to the touch all over.
- Top the cooled cupcakes with 2 tablespoons frosting per cake. Dust lightly with ground cinnamon to garnish. Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
