Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and prepare the pan: Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.

In a separate medium mixing bowl, mash the banana with a fork or potato masher, and add the coconut oil, cooled coffee, vanilla, and apple cider vinegar. Whisk until combined.

Add the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and stir thoroughly to combine using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula. Portion out the batter into the cupcake liners, filling each almost to the top.

Bake cupcakes for 18 to 20 minutes or until cupcakes spring back ever so slightly when pressed in the center. Cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer cupcakes to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once cool, frost cupcakes with Chocolate Fudge Frosting.

Serve.
