From Eden's Kitchen

Blueberry Muffins - yummy!

Here's a pic of the muffins Eden made on her shelf - before she went shopping (I'll show you a pic after she's done shopping later - she does have the gift of finding food items I never knew existed!).

I asked if I could share the recipe with you, so here it is:

She tweaked this "really simple" Cranberry Muffin recipe found in Cooking with the Right Side of the Brain: Creative Vegetarian Cooking by author Vicki Rae Chelf to create a very tasty & moist vegan  muffin.  

1 1/2 c whole wheat pastry flour

3 t baking powder

1/2 cup real maple syrup

2 T oil (we use safflower)

Energ Egg Replacer for 2 eggs (3 t replacer + 4 T water) (I've been using this brand for decades.)

1/4 c Whole Soy & Co Lemon Yogurt (We were out of almond milk so she got creative.)

1 t real vanilla

1 1/2 t cinnamon (Eden added this ingredient.) 

1 c frozen organic blueberries (She told me she didn't even let it thaw.)

Yield: 9 nice-sized muffins

Time: 25 minutes

1. Sift together flour, baking powder & cinnamon.

2. In a separate bowl, whisk together maple syrup, oil, egg replacer mixture, yogurt (or milk) & vanilla.

3. Stir dry ingredients into liquid ingredients. Beat enough to blend well, but don't over-beat. 

4. Fold in blueberries.

5. Spoon mixture into well-oiled muffin tins.

6. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. 

7 Enjoy!

*Special note - Eden is an amazing cook & raw-food preparer - she has blended her love of organic whole foods with her artistic flair to create some of the best-tasting & best-looking treats & meals we've created in our home.
