Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1.75 cups all-purpose flour sifted
  • 0.5 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Wet Ingredients
  • 0.75 cup maple syrup
  • 0.75 cup unsweetened vegan yogurt
  • 6 tablespoons sunflower oil
  • 0.25 cup unsweetened soy milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon orange zest
  • 1 tablespoon orange juice
Main Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups fresh blueberries

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Rubber spatula
  • Muffin tin
  • Parchment paper liners
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures the muffins bake evenly.
  2. Step 2: Line a muffin tin with parchment paper liners or lightly grease it with sunflower oil to prevent sticking.
  3. Step 3: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, fine sea salt, and ground nutmeg. Set aside.
  4. Step 4: In another bowl, combine the maple syrup, vegan yogurt, sunflower oil, soy milk, vanilla extract, orange zest, and orange juice. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
  5. Step 5: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Use a rubber spatula to gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.
  6. Step 6: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter without breaking them.
  7. Step 7: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full to allow for rising.
  8. Step 8: Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. The tops should be golden and spring back when lightly touched.
  9. Step 9: Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • Freeze for up to 2 months in a zip-top bag for longer storage.
  • Reheat in the microwave or toaster oven for a quick snack.
