Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
- 2.5 tablespoons water
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a mini muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.
In a small bowl, combine the flaxseed meal and water to make a flax egg. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it thickens.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
In a separate bowl, mix the almond milk and lemon juice. Let it sit for a minute to curdle slightly, creating vegan buttermilk.
Add the sugar, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and thickened flax egg to the almond milk mixture. Stir well to combine.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the blueberries until evenly distributed in the batter.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy the mini muffins warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
