Day 157.
This week I’m having Vegan Blueberry Muffins. Vegans get a little bit of the shaft when it comes to baked treats. No cheese, no eggs, no milk and even no honey all mean that store-bought treats ad even traditional recipes are a no-go. So I crafted these Vegan Blueberry Muffins with buttery spread and applesauce replacing the butter and eggs. Soymilk also replaces the milk. The butter is the biggest trick. Especially with the topping. It’s much easier to make buttery spread streusel crunchy with the addition of the oats. Not required, but oh so much easier.
Blueberry muffins are a classic go-to breakfast on the run. This vegan variety tops it all off with a delicious crunchy streusel as well!
Blueberry Muffins
Ingredients
¼ cups Margarine #1
½ cups Applesauce
½ teaspoons Salt
1 cup Sugar #1
2 cups Flour, All-Purpose #1
1 tablespoon Baking Powder
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
½ cups Soy Milk
2 cups Blueberries
½ cups Sugar #2
⅓ cups Flour, All-Purpose #2
¼ cups Margarine #2
1 ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
2 tablespoons Rolled Oats
The Results
The kids are completely in love with me today. Blueberry Muffins for dinner? What? Maybe we’ll have leftover burgers for breakfast to balance life out. These are fabulous. They don’t seem to get as puffy as the non-vegan counterparts, but the taste and texture are excellent.
