Description
Easy to make vegan chocolate chip muffins. Enjoy your homemade treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed meal
- 3 tablespoons warm water
- ½ cup non-dairy milk (such as almond or soy milk)
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¾ cup vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
- In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed meal and warm water. Stir well and let it sit for 5-10 minutes, until it thickens and forms a gel-like consistency. This is your ‘flax egg’.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the non-dairy milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and the prepared flax egg.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spoon or spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Fold in the vegan chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups. Fill each cup about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Adjust sugar to your preference.
- Use your favorite vegan chocolate chips.
