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!
Ingredients
- 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
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F and line a muffin tin with baking cups or lightly grease a muffin tin
- In a small bowl combine almond milk and apple cider vinegar and allow to sit for 10 minutes to curdle
- In a larger bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt
- 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
- Fold in blueberries
- Using a large ice-cream scoop portion into muffin tin
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean
- Remove from heat and allow muffins to cool before removing from pan
Notes
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
