Easy Dairy-Free Vanilla Cupcakes with Oat Milk

These dairy-free vanilla cupcakes are perfectly moist, fluffy, and quick to bake— ready in just 20 minutes! The combination of vegetable oil and dairy-free milk makes the cupcakes delightfully tall and thick, yet also light and fluffy. As for topping, my dairy-free buttercream frosting is the perfect pairing. It’s vanilla based and pipes like a dream! Recipe yields 12 cupcakes.

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar, (157g)
  • 1 ¼ cup flour, (160g)
  • 1 tsp baking powder, (4g)
  • ¼ tsp baking soda, (1 ½ g)
  • ½ tsp kosher salt, (3g)
  • ¾ cup Oat milk, (6 oz) Sub soy milk
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract, (14g)
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil, (2 oz)
  • 1 egg, (50g)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350F and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  • In a large mixing bowl combine the ¾ cup sugar, 1 ¼ cup all purpose flour, 1 tsp baking powder, ¼ tsp baking soda, and ½ tsp kosher salt and whisk lightly to combine.
  • Next add in the ¾ cup oat milk, tablespoon of vanilla, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, and 1 egg.
  • Mix until combined but do not overmix.
  • Fill each cup ⅔ of the way full. Do not overfill.
  • Bake for 18 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool completely. Frost with dairy free buttercream frosting.

Notes

Use any dairy free milk you have on hand but I like to use oat milk because it is creamier than other dairy free milks.
