Eating a 95 percent plant-based diet, focusing more on plant-based foods and less on animal-based foods seems right for me. I noticed on Meat free days I feel more energized. It’s well worth the effort to consume less meat and dairy even if you don’t eliminate it entirely. There are so many more nutrients in vegetables. Herbs and vegetables have so many medicinal benefits. Most of my recipes here are vegan. Take this journey with me!
CHOCOLATE CHIP MINI MUFFINS (VEGAN)
INGREDIENTS
Dry
2 cups organic unbleached all-purpose flour, sifted
1 and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1/2 cup organic coconut sugar, packed
Wet
1 cup non-dairy milk, I use unsweetened almond milk
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar, or lemon juice
1/4 cup organic refined coconut oil, melted
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 Tablespoons maple syrup
INSTRUCTIONS
Start by greasing a mini muffin pan with coconut oil and preheating your oven to 375º.
Measure the almond milk and stir in the vinegar. Set aside to create a buttermilk.
In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda and salt. Now mix in the coconut sugar and chocolate chips.
Pour the non-dairy milk/vinegar mix and remaining wet ingredients (oil, vanilla and syrup) into the bowl of dry, then fold them together. Don’t over mix, a few lumps are ok.
Fill each muffin cup to the top, using up the batter to fill all 24 cups.
Bake at 375º for 10-12 min or until toothpick comes out clean of batter.
Allow to cool for at least 5 min before transferring to a cooling rack.
To store–allow muffins to cool completely, then store in an airtight container for up to 5 days (if they last that long).
