Hello beautiful mamas,
I love baking. I am still an amateur but I enjoy making simple and easy things like these vegan blueberry muffins. The recipe is very easy and it takes only 20 minutes to make them. Blueberries are a good source of vitamin K. They also contain vitamin C, fibre, manganese and other antioxidants.
I made these muffins one morning after feeling really uncomfortable from a morning sickness. Once the worst of it was away I wanted a nice gooey and sweet treat with a nice cup of tea. In the town that I live, Bangor, Northern Ireland there is no vegan treats as such, so the next best thing is to make them myself.
So here is what you need
- 1 and 3/4 cups of organic self rising flour
- 3/4 cup of brown sugar
- 3/4 cup of your favourite plant milk (I use oat milk)
- 1/3 cup of melted coconut oil(you can use sunflower oil, too)
- 10 gr of baking soda
- 2 spoonfuls of vanilla essence
- 1 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries
- Optional 2 spoonfuls of chia seeds (I add them as they are high in Omega 3 and fibre and also contain decent amount of Zinc, Vitamin B3 (Niacin), Potassium, Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) and Vitamin B2)
Method
- In a large bowl mix the flour with the sugar and baking soda.Add the chia seeds if you have chosen to use them
- Warm up the milk and in a smaller bowl mix it with the oil and the vanilla essence.
- Then mix the two in the large bowl and gently mix them together.
- Add the blueberries and fold them into the mix.
- Preheat the oven to 180C for.
- Place the muffins into the muffin tin and place them in the oven.
- Bake for approx. 20 minutes. I normally test if they are ready by checking with a wooden skewer.If it’s dry , they are perfect.
They were a complete win with my boys and my man. Everybody loved them. Making these vegan blueberry muffins took my mind of the morning sickness and I felt quite nice after the sugar fix.
Serve them with your favourite cup of tea. I had mine with a cup of ginger tea.
Enjoy and be well.
Lots of Love,
Ivelina
