Vegan Cupcake class
I’ve been meaning to upload these pictures for a while. Back in February, me and a couple friends took a Vegan cupcake class from the Boston Center for Adult Education. The instructor was a vegan baker herself. There were only 6 of us in the class and apparently there are usually about 15. Our class size was great because it was so hands on. We also got to take home quite a few cupcakes that day since we had made 6 dozen!!
I don’t have the recipes of the cupcakes, but they look similar to what can be found in Vegan Cupcakes Take over The World.
We made: Blood Orange cupcakes (which came out of the oven green!) with Orange flavored buttercream. My friend Ren made these cute little oranges out of marzipan to put on top!
Then we made Chai cupcakes with a Cardamon buttercream. Some of the other girls in the class who had never piped frosting before decorated these and I think they look awesome! 
And last, but DEFINITELY not least, we made chocolate cupcakes filled with raspberry preserves and ganache and topped with ganache. Yes, we put ganache INSIDE and ON TOP of the cupcake. These were my favorite. So amazing. 
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
I made this for my family get-together and everyone loved it. It came out pretty soggy, though, so I’ll need to try to get the extra juices out of the fruits before cooking. I also didn’t pre-heat the baking pan under the pie dish so that may have contributed too. Thanks for this recipe!

So glad you guys enjoyed it!
Outstanding! We were able to use our fresh peaches and sweet cherries to make this wonderful pie. I did make the following adjustments: I only used half cup of sugar in the pie filling, and in the crumble topping I used 1/4 brown sugar and 2 tbsp. sugar, and I reduced the butter to 3 tbsp. melted. I used a fork to press the crumble ingredients together (in pastry cutter style) until it became crumbly. It was absolutely delicious and I know I’ll be making it again and again.
