#WPFBlueberryAvocadoMuffins
Makes 12
Ingredients
1 Cup Plant Milk + 1 TBSP Apple Cider Vinegar
1 TBSP Ground Flaxseeds + 4 TBSP Warm Water
1 Avocado
2 Cups Whole Wheat Flour or Spelt Flour
1/2 Cup Coconut Sugar or Date Sugar
2 TSP Baking Powder
3/4 TSP Baking Soda
1/2 TSP Sea Salt
1 TBSP Lemon Extract
1 Cup Grated Zucchini
1 Cup Fresh Blueberries
Directions
-
Pre-heat your oven to 350F
-
Line Muffin Tin with Parchment Baking Cups
-
In a small bowl combine the Plant Milk and Apple Cider Vinegar - let sit. This will become "Vegan Buttermilk"
-
In another small bowl combine the Flaxseeds and Warm Water. This is will be like an egg.
-
Mash the Avocado. I find it easiest to cut the Avocado in half, cross hatch slice it, squeeze out onto a cutting board and then mash with a fork. You should have about 1/2 Cup.
-
In a large bowl combine the dry ingredients - Flour, Sugar, Baking Powder, Baking Soda and Salt.
-
Add the Vegan Buttermilk, Vegan Flax Egg and Mashed Avocado into your Dry Ingredient bowl. Mixto combine making sure the Avocado in particular is mixed in well.
-
Add in the Lemon Extract, Grated Zucchini and lastly the Fresh Blueberries. Mix enough to combine everything, but don't over mix.
-
Portion into your Muffin Tin.
-
Bake for 22-24 minutes. With a toothpick, test to ensure they are cooked all the way through.
-
Allow to cool. Store in the fridge up to 5 days or in the Freezer for 6 weeks.
