These Vegan Blueberry Muffins are light, fluffy, and packed with juicy blueberries. Not only are they completely dairy-free and eggless, but they are also incredibly easy to make with simple pantry ingredients. In addition, they have a perfectly tender crumb and just the right amount of sweetness.
Ingredients
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 cup plant-based milk (almond, soy, or oat)
- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 to 1½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 tbsp flour (for coating blueberries)
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
First, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Then, line a muffin tin with paper liners.
2. Mix the Dry Ingredients
Next, in a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. This ensures even distribution.
3. Combine the Wet Ingredients
Meanwhile, in another bowl, mix plant-based milk, oil, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
4. Make the Batter
Now, pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Then, gently mix until just combined. However, avoid overmixing to keep the muffins soft.
5. Add the Blueberries
Next, toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour. This helps prevent them from sinking.
Then, gently fold them into the batter.
6. Bake the Muffins
After that, divide the batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
7. Cool and Serve
Finally, allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
Tips for Best Results
- For extra flavor, add lemon zest to the batter.
- Additionally, use fresh blueberries when in season for the best taste.
- If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them before adding.
