Grandma Lois’s Very Best Vegan Blueberry Muffins

Note from Paul:

This recipe never fails to impress. It tastes like yummy angel food cake!

Ingredients:

2 cups flour

1.5 teaspoons baking soda

0.5 teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon lemon zest.75 cups white sugar

1 cup non-dairy milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1.5 cups fresh blueberries

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 400F.

2. Grease a muffin tin.

3. Combine flour, baking soda, salt, and zest in a bowl

4. In another bowl, mix the sugar, milk, oil, extract, and vinegar.

5. Combine the wet and dry ingredients and stir until barely mixed — don’t over stir!

6. Fold in the blueberries with a rubber spatula (be gentle so they don’t pop!).

7. Fill the muffin tins a bit more than halfway full with the batter. Sprinkle a few extra blueberries on top if you like.

8. Bake for 15 minutes at 400F, then rotate the tin 180 degrees and lower the temperature to 375F and bake for another 8 minutes — or until a cake tester comes out clean.

9. Let cool on a wire rack, then EAT!
