Ingredients

Muffins

  • 1 1/2 cups soy milk unsweetened
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseeds
  • 2 cups gluten free flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup neutral flavored oil canola or avocado
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries or frozen, see notes

Optional crumb topping

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Prepare crumb topping

  • In a small bowl, stir the flour, sugar and cinnamon together. Pour in the melted vegan butter and mix with a fork until you have crumbs. Chill in the refrigerator while you make the muffin batter.

Make the muffins

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line two standard muffin pans with liners. Spray the liners lightly with nonstick spray. Sometimes vegan muffins like to stick so we won't let them!
  • In a glass measuring cup, combine the soy milk, apple cider vinegar and ground flaxseeds. Whisk with a fork for a minute until combined. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Pour in the soy milk/vinegar/flax mixture, oil, vanilla and almond extract. Stir until well combined, but do not over mix the batter.
  • Fold in the blueberries gently with a spatula. Divide batter evenly in the muffin pans, about 3/4 of the way full. I got 22 muffins out of the recipe.
  • Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with the crumb topping, and add a few more blueberries on top, if desired. Place in the oven and bake for 24-28 minutes, until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then move to a cooling rack. Enjoy!

Notes

  1. Gluten free flour - Use a quality gluten free flour. I prefer Better Batter, but King Arthur 1:1 Flour works, as well as others. Almond flour will not work, it must be a mix.
  2. If using frozen berries, do not thaw first. Roll them in a little flour then gently fold them into the batter.
