Mimosa Cupcakes

Gluten, Soy, Dairy Free

cupcakes:

1 cups white rice flour

1 cup brown rice flour

1 cup white sugar

1 ts xanthan gum

1 ts baking soda

3 ts gluten free baking powder

1 ts pure vanilla

3 large organic eggs

1/2 cup oil

1/2 cup champagne

1/2 cup valencia orange juice

1 ts orange zest

frosting:

1 /2 cup pureed apricots

1 cup (or more) powdered confectioner's sugar

1 ts orange oil

Preheat to 350F.

Line or spray cupcake tins.

In a medium mixing bowl, add dry ingredients (except white sugar) and whisk well.

In another bowl (or in your Kitchenaid) mix together sugar, eggs, oil, champagne & orange juice.

Add dry ingredients, vanilla and mix thoroughly.

Spoon batter equally into pans and place in oven for 12-15 minutes.

The cupcakes will spring back when you push on them.

While cupcakes are cooling puree apricots, and make frosting. To get a lighter frosting texture, I used the wire whisk attachment on my Kitchenaid, and fluffed it up:)

Ice when cooled completely.

Enjoy!

I think my mother woudl rather me have this type of mimosa's rather than the real kind. It ensures her i'll make it down the aisle if I'm not too tipsy (especially for a 1130am ceremony!)! I might need one to wash it down though.....
