Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Poppy seeds
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 cup Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 0.33 cup Coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease each cup.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and poppy seeds until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, mix the granulated sugar, unsweetened almond milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and apple cider vinegar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold the mixture together using a spatula or wooden spoon. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
Evenly distribute the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 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 tin for about 5 minutes. Then transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
