Whip up a batch of delicious vegan chocolate chip muffins that are moist, tender, and packed with chocolatey goodness. This recipe uses simple plant-based swaps to create a delightful treat perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup unsweetened non-dairy milk (almond, soy, or oat)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water, let sit for 5 minutes)
  • 1 cup vegan chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, non-dairy milk, apple cider vinegar, vanilla extract, and flax egg until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the vegan chocolate chips.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon to the dry ingredients.
  • Feel free to use a mix of chocolate chips, like dark and semi-sweet, for a richer chocolate taste.
  • If you don’t have apple cider vinegar, white vinegar or lemon juice can be substituted.
