Baseball Cupcakes

My friend, Jamie, has me make some yummy goodies for her boy's lunches. She has the CUTEST ideas for their lunches. Check out her BLOG. Her boys LOVE baseball, so I decided to make them baseball cupcakes.



1/2 cup coconut flour
1/4 tsp Celtic sea salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
6 eggs (or 3 eggs and 1/3 cup coconut milk)
1/2 cup erythritol (or xylitol)
1 tsp stevia glycerite (omit if using xylitol)
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup coconut oil or butter, melted
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium sized bowl sift together the dry ingredients. Slowly add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until very smooth. Grease a donut pan and fill about 2/3 of the way full with batter. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

FROSTING:
1/2 cup coconut oil or butter
8 oz cream cheese or coconut cream
3 TBS Vanilla Almond Milk
1 TBS Stevia Glycerite (to taste)

In a bowl, mix the butter/oil and the cream cheese, almond milk, and sweetener to taste. Mix until creamy. Spread on top of cupcakes. I also melted 1 ChocoPerfection bar with 3 TBS almond milk. I placed the melted chocolate in a small Ziplock bag, and cut a tiny hole in the corner. I used this to pipe baseball stripes on the cupcakes. Makes 16 servings.
