Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.25 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cups Plant-based milk (e.g., almond, soy, or oat milk)
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.25 cups Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Dairy-free dark chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the tin.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine the plant-based milk, applesauce, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Mix well until fully incorporated.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Mix gently with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; this helps to keep the muffins light and tender.
Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your low-fat vegan chocolate muffins as a guilt-free treat or store them in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
