I Can You Can Vegan

1 Preheat oven to 350°
2 In a large bowl combine all of the dry ingredients for the cake, then add in the wet ingredients and mix together.
3 Line a cupcake pan with liners and distribute the batter amongst the pan using a ¼ measuring cup.
4 Bake for 25-28 minutes or until a toothpick can be removed clean once inserted into the center of a cupcake.
5 While the cupcakes are baking, make the frosting. Add all of the ingredients to a large mixing bowl and use an electric mixer to combine until the frosting is light and fluffy. Set aside in the fridge (or leave out if your home isn't too warm).
6 Remove the cupcakes from the oven and carefully take each of them out of the pan and transfer onto the counter so they stop cooking and are allowed to cool. 
7 Once the cupcakes are completely cooled, ice them using your frosting. Garnish with additional lemon zest (optional) and enjoy!
