Here is a great recipe for vegan blueberry muffins from my housemate Marc.<\/p>\n
Vegan Blueberry Muffins<\/p>\n
2 cups all-purpose flour
\n2 teaspoons baking powder
\n1 tablespoon cinnamon
\n3\/4 teaspoon salt
\n1 1\/2 cups granulated sugar
\n10 tablespoons (1 1\/2 sticks or 5\/8 cups) margarine, melted or at room temperature
\n1 1\/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
\n2 flax eggs
\n3\/4 cup soy milk
\n1 3\/4 fresh (or frozen) blueberries<\/p>\n
1. Make 2 flax eggs.<\/p>\n
2. Preheat over to 350 degrees Farenheit. Grease muffin tins lightly with vegetable oil (spray works).<\/p>\n
3. Sift and mix thoroughly the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and sugar together into a small bowl.<\/p>\n
4. Mix the margarine, vanilla extract, flax eggs, and soy milk together in a large bowl.<\/p>\n
5. Fold in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, until the batter is thoroughly mixed.<\/p>\n
6. Fold the blueberries in gently.<\/p>\n
7. Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tins. Do not allow the batter to overflow any of the muffin molds.<\/p>\n
8. Bake the muffins on the center oven rack until golden around the base and toothpicks come out clean when stuck in the center.<\/p>\n
Optional Modification:
\nReplace all or part of the margarine for a low-fat alternative using a 1:1 ration of unsweetened applesauce. E.g. For half the fat use 5 tablespoons of margarine and 5 tablespoons of applesauce.<\/p>\n
Flax Egg:
\nFlax eggs are simply a 3:1 ratio of water and flax. To make 1 flax egg mix 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed, the finer the better (coffee grinder works well), with 3 tablespoons of water. Mix up with a fork and for better results let soak in the fridge for 1 to 4 hours. You should notice an egg-like consistency after letting it soak.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
