Total Time: 1 hr 5 mins
Servings: 12
Yield: 12 cupcakes

Ingredients

  1. ½ cup palm shortening
  2. ½ cup coconut sugar
  3. 4 large eggs
  4. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  5. ½ cup coconut flour
  6. ¼ cup cacao powder
  7. ¾ teaspoon salt
  8. ½ teaspoon baking soda
  9. ½ cup seedless raspberry jam

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. Cream shortening and sugar together in a bowl. Add eggs, one at a time, scraping down the sides after each addition. Mix in vanilla.
  3. Sift coconut flour, cacao powder, salt, and baking powder together in a bowl. Gradually add to the wet ingredients on low speed. Once incorporated, turn mixer to medium-high and beat until airy, about 1 minute.
  4. Use an ice cream scoop to fill the prepared muffin cups 3/4 full with batter.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Rotate the pan, and cook until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 8 to 10 minutes more.
  6. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and let cool completely, about 25 minutes.
  7. Meanwhile, whip jam in a small bowl until smooth and transfer to a piping bag. Insert the nozzle into the top of a cupcake and gently squeeze to fill with jam. Repeat with all cupcakes.
