The Best Vegan Blueberry Muffins
These are the BEST vegan blueberry muffins I’ve ever had. An avocado replaces the butter (and much of the oil) you’d typically add to muffin batter. These are fluffy, moist, and so easy to make!
What you need

cup granulated sugar

cup canola oil

cup vegan sour cream

cup light-brown sugar

tsp vanilla extract

tsp cinnamon

tsp nutmeg

pinch salt

cup all purpose flour
tbsp baking powder
cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
-1 Preheat oven to 400F. Spray a non-stick muffin pan with floured cooking spray, or grease and flour the pan; set aside. (I prefer cosmetically to not use liners, and they could stick to muffins; have not tested liners with this recipe) -1 In a large mixing bowl, mash the avocado very well. -1 Add the granulated sugar, oil, Greek yogurt or sour cream, light brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, optional salt, and whisk to combine. -1 Add 1 cup flour, baking powder, and stir until just combined; don’t overmix. Set bowl aside. -1 In a small bowl, toss blueberries with 2 tablespoons flour, which prevents them from sinking as much while baking. -1 Gently fold blueberries into batter along with any flour that didn’t adhere. If using frozen berries, add them into the batter frozen, do not thaw. This prevents them from bleeding, running, and breaking apart as much. -1 Divide batter evenly among 12-cups in prepared pan. Each cavity should be filled between 2/3 and 3/4 full. Do not exceed 3/4 full, or muffins could overflow while baking. If you have extra batter, make a 13th muffin or sample the batter – it’s vegan and safe. -1 Bake at 400F for 10 minutes. -1 Lower the oven temperature to 350F and bake for another 15 to 17 minutes, or until muffins are done. Muffins are done when domed, golden, springy to the touch, and a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter. I baked for 15 minutes after lowering the temp, for a total of 25 minutes and used frozen berries. -1 Allow muffins to cool in pan for about 10 minutes before removing. Muffins will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 4 months. -1View original recipe
