Vegan Lemon & Olive Oil Cupcakes

The traditional lemon & olive oil cake comes from Southern Italy & includes eggs but in this vegan version you can't notice that they aren't any eggs at all !!This cupcakes have a lovely balanced flavour of lemon and it is neither too sweet nor too tangy & with just a hint of flavour from the olive oil.This is Italy in nutshell,if you ask me :) I made this cupcakes for a family dinner & I can't even explain to you the aroma that my kitchen was filled with Hmmm.....That warm citrus flavor and as soon as I took these little cupcakes out from the oven we dig into it immediately.......dug into a biteful of just the most comforting crispy soft goodness only from "Nia's mommy food trail"....
