They’re bursting with blueberries and come together quickly with simple ingredients in just 1 bowl. They’re the perfect companion for coffee or tea and will wow anyone you share them with! Let us show you how it’s done!
How to Make Gluten-Free Vegan Blueberry Muffins
These 1-bowl blueberry muffins start with making flax eggs for an egg-free, fiber-filled way to prevent the muffins from crumbling. Next we add cane sugar for classic sweetness, vegan butter for richness, and vanilla because always. Vegan “buttermilk” (a.k.a. dairy-free milk + lemon juice) is the acidic liquid that helps activate the baking soda. If you’d prefer to keep these muffins naturally sweetened, coconut sugar works in place of cane sugar, but it lends a darker color and more wholesome flavor. Next, we mix in the dry ingredients using a hand mixer, which creates more air in the batter, leading to extra light and fluffy muffins. The gluten-free flour trio includes almond flour for a crumb texture, potato starch to keep the muffins light and fluffy, and brown rice flour for structure. The baking soda and baking powder create lift and sea salt adds flavor. We then stir in a generous amount of blueberries (because are they even blueberry muffins if they aren’t bursting with blueberries?! Not around here, friends.). Don’t skip the extra blueberries on top. Lastly, we bake these beauties until golden brown and fluffy and let them cool fully to allow the flours to soak up any excess moisture (an important step for gluten-free breads and muffins!). We hope you LOVE these blueberry muffins! They’re:ClassicLight + fluffyMoistPerfectly sweetBursting with blueberries& Undetectably gluten-free & vegan! Enjoy them as a healthier dessert, on-the-go snack, or sweet morning treat with coffee or tea. Bonus points? Each muffin contains 5 grams of protein, which can help offset the sluggish feeling you might get when your blood sugar crashes after a more classic sweet.
