Spring is here and these Vegan Banana Blueberry Cupcakes are just what you need! A banana cake with a hint of cinnamon, bursting with warm blueberries and topped with frosting! Yum!
So why the vegan cupcakes? Because Earth Balance is having this fun Vegan Cupcake Challenge that everyone can enter! Cupcakes and competition… it’s my sort of thing! Plus, vegan recipes are great to have on hand in case you don’t have any eggs or milk in the fridge! Vegan banana bread has seriously saved me a few times!
I just couldn’t help myself when these came hot out of the oven! I had to eat one…or two. Even without the frosting they make great muffins perfect for lunch boxes or picnics. But let’s be honest, adding frosting just makes every better.
I topped my cupcakes with a little bit of sanding sugar sprinkles and some fresh berries. But if you use frozen blueberries in the recipe (which you totally can) then you can just use some sprinkles to add a little decoration.

Not sure about the icing.. it was really thick and tasted too buttery. Probably would have been better with soy milk. However, cupcakes are delicious! I didn’t know vegan could taste so good!
