muffins « The Vegan Mom

I was trying to come up with a healthy breakfast muffin recipe, without white flour or refined sugar. Whole wheat flour, fresh fruit & maple syrup are perfect ingredients for these morning muffins. They are not super sweet, but put a little Earth Balance spread on them while they are still warm, and YUM~breakfast is served!

Set oven to 375 degrees

Ingredients:

2 cups whole wheat flour

1 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. baking soda

1/4 tsp. salt

1 tbsp. cinnamon

1 cup almond milk

1/3 cup canola oil

1 tsp. vanilla

1 large banana mashed

1 cup blueberries

1/2 cup maple syrup

Mix together dry ingredients. Then add the remaining ingredients. Blend well and scoop into greased muffin pan. Bake for 18-20 minutes. Makes 12 muffins.

This recipe is my daughter’s favorite & it is very easy to make! If you are making these for your child’s class or a party, I suggest using soy milk instead of almond milk because of nut allergies.

Ingredients:

3 ripe bananas

1/4 cup canola oil

1/2 cup brown rice syrup

1/4 cup soy or almond milk

1 tablespoon molasses

1 cup unbleached white flour

1 cup whole wheat flour

1/4 cup wheat germ

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup non dairy chocolate chips

1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees

In a large bowl mash bananas & mix with oil, brown rice syrup, soy milk & molasses. Add dry ingredients & chocolate chips. Stir well & scoop into oiled muffin tins. Bake for 15-18 minutes.
