Vegan Blueberry Muffins

Rainy Days call for big batch baking!  These were on the menu this week for breakfast and snacks and I doubled the recipe to stock the freezer.  This recipe is adapted from my one of my favorite muffin recipes EVER – My Darling Vegan’s Blueberry Muffins.  They are so good I have made them with all types of berries and they taste wonderful with all of them.  I have made them with fresh and frozen berries and they work well with both. I like this recipe best with 1 cup regular flour and 1 cup whole wheat flour, but they also worked well with the gluten free blend – see the notes in the recipe.  If you make them let me know what your favorite combination is in the comments!

Vegan Blueberry Muffins (Gluten Free Optional)

  • 1 cup almond milk (or favorite plant based milk(see note 2 below))
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 cups flour (see note 1 below)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder (add 1 teaspoon if using a gluten free blend)
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup Maple Syrup
  • ¼ cup canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1½ – 2 cups fresh blueberries (you can use frozen)
  1. Preheat the oven to 350F and line a muffin tin with baking cups or lightly grease a muffin tin
  2. In a small bowl combine almond milk and apple cider vinegar and allow to sit for 10 minutes to curdle
  3. In a larger bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt
  4. Add maple syrup, canola oil and vanilla to the almond milk/vinegar mixture and stir to combine. Pour wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until well incorporated – Be careful not to overmix
  5. Fold in blueberries
  6. Using a large ice-cream scoop portion into muffin tin
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean
  8. Remove from heat and allow muffins to cool before removing from pan

Note 1: I like the taste of all-purpose flour for these muffins the best if you do not have a gluten allergy, but I tested them out with an Oat Flour and an All-Purpose Gluten Free Flour Blend and both worked well – the Oat Flour had a better texture

Note 2: If using Oat Flour decrease the milk to ¾ cup
