    Hamburger Whoopie Pies [Vegan]

    While they aren't likely to fool any meat-eaters into thinking they're eating a real hamburger, these adorable whoopie pies are sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Totally vegan. Totally delicious.

    Ingredients You Need for Hamburger Whoopie Pies [Vegan]

    For the buns (makes 12 circles)
    • 1/4 cup non-dairy milk of choice
    • scant 1 tsp vinegar
    • 1/2 cup vegan whole-wheat pastry flour (or white flour)
    • 1/4 tsp baking soda
    • 1 tsp baking powder
    • just over 1/8 tsp salt
    • 1/4 cup evaporated cane juice (or white sugar)
    • 1 1/2 tablespoons applesauce
    • 1 tablespoon water
    • 1 1/2 tablespoons oil (coconut or canola/veg)
    • 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
    For the burger fixins Feel free to get creative. I sliced strawberries to represent tomatoes. For the green frosting (i.e. the spinach!), I used a small portion of this recipe:
    • 2/3 cup silken-firm tofu (140 g)
    • 6 tablespoons coconut butter or raw cashew butter
    • scant 1/8th tsp salt
    • small handful spinach
    • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
    • sweetener to taste (stevia, agave, sugar, etc.)

    How to Prepare Hamburger Whoopie Pies [Vegan]

    For the buns
    1. Preheat oven to 375 F.
    2. Mix vinegar into milk, and set aside.
    3. In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients and mix very well.
    4. Then put all the other liquid ingredients into the vinegar mixture and stir.
    5. Pour wet into dry, and stir to combine.
    6. Drop tiny circles (a little over the size of a silver dollar) onto 1 or 2 cookie trays. (Or, if you have a whoopie pie maker, you can use that!)
    7. Bake around 8 minutes.
    For the burger fixins
    1. Blend everything in a blender or food processor. This frosting is thicker when cold, so it’s a good idea to make it up ahead of time. But don’t frost the whoopie pies until just before serving (or frost them and then store in the fridge). I put the frosting in a plastic bag and cut a tiny hole in the side to squirt it out.
