How to Make Vegan Pumpkin Whoopie Pies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened vegan butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. (An electric mixer is highly recommended).
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and salt in a separate bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg replacer and plant-based milk until combined.
- Add the pumpkin puree to the creamed butter and sugar mixture. Beat until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Add the milk mixture and mix until the batter is smooth.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of batter onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each whoopie pie.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the whoopie pies cool completely on the baking sheets before frosting.
- While the cakes cool, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat together the softened vegan cream cheese and vegan butter until smooth.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until light and fluffy.
- Once the whoopie pies are completely cool, spread a generous amount of frosting onto the flat side of one cake and top with another cake to create a whoopie pie.
- Wrap individually in saran wrap or store with a slice of stale bread to maintain freshness. Enjoy!
