Strawberry Orange Almond Muffins – vegan
One thing that pleasantly surprised me when I started our 95% plant-based diet was that you can make delicious muffins completely plant-based.
Who knew? Really!
I thought eggs and dairy milk were essential and irreplaceable ingredients. And I was so wrong!
To make these muffins you don’t need eggs or dairy milk. You don’t even need flax seeds or apple sauce that are often seen in vegan baking recipes!
I love using fresh strawberries when they are in season. Fresh strawberries remind me that spring is finally here (and it’s a big deal in Minnesota!). The combination of the strawberry and the orange brighten up the flavor and my mood!
And don’t forget about the almond meal flour either. It gives rich and almost buttery flavor to these no-butter muffins.
1.5 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup almond meal flour
2/3 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup almond milk
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup canola oil
2 tablespoons orange zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1.5 cup fresh strawberries, roughly chopped
1. Preheat oven to 375 F.
2. Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add canola oil, milk, orange juice, zest and vanilla. Mix just until all wet ingredients are moistened. Add strawberries. Combine well.
3. Pour the batter into paper lined muffin pan cups. Fill muffin tins 3/4 full.
4. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted through the center comes out clean.
Is this plant-based?: Yes 100%!

オレンジの皮と果汁、そして、フレッシュな苺をたっぷり入れて作ったマフィンです。
ヴィーガンなのですが、少し入れたアーモンドミール粉が、なんともバターみたいなコクを出してくれます。
