| This
original recipe called for white flour, brown sugar and buttermilk. I
substituted Fruit Sweet, whole wheat pastry flour, and rice milk … and
used 1½ cups berries, which made the muffin chockfull of fruit.
Although I’ve listed 1 cup of fruit in the
recipe, you can go for more.
The tins need to be filled almost to the top with batter because the
muffins don’t raise much while baking. Despite that,
they’re really light and fluffy …
not to mention delicious!
1. Preheat oven to
400 degrees. Spray
muffin pan lightly
with olive oil cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, sift together:
1¾ cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 Tbsp plus 1 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp sea salt
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp ground allspice
3. In a medium bowl, whisk until frothy:
1 cup rice or soy milk
1 tsp lemon juice
1/3 cup Fruit Sweet
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp unsweetened applesauce
¼ cup Egg Starts egg substitute
4. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients,
stirring just until blended.
5. Fold in:
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
6. Fill muffin tins
almost to the top with batter. Bake
for 20-25 minutes until tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted
in middle of muffins comes out clean. Let cool
in muffin tins for a few minutes, and then remove to serving platter.
Yields 9 large muffins.
