1 3/4 cups flour
1 1/2 cups vegan sugar
1/2 cup packed organic brown sugar
1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350F. Gather all ingredients and supplies.
Line cupcake tins with paper cupcake liners.
In large mixing bowl, sift dry ingredients, except for walnuts.
In small mixing bowl, mix wet ingredients.
Pour wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl and mix until all dry ingredients are wet and there are no lumps.
Do not over-mix.
Gently fold in walnuts.
Fill cupcake liners 1/2 to 2/3 full.
