Sunday Morning Muffins

These muffins were inspired by the awesome nutmeg flavor of plain doughnuts. I found a recipe online and veganised it as well as changed it up a bit. The muffins are much heartier and heavier than a traditional muffin...definitely more like a doughnut, which is the point anyway. They go together easily and smell and taste great. Enjoy. : )



Plain Doughnut inspired Breakfast Muffins

2 T flax meal mixed with 6 T water (set aside)
1 t apple cider vinegar mixed with 1 cup + 2 T almond milk (set aside)
1/3 cup oil
1 t vanilla
2 2/3 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 t baking powder
1/2 t baking soda
1 1/2 t ground nutmeg
1/4 t salt

preheat oven to 425 f

oil muffin pan or use paper liners

Combine all dry ingredients in large bowl. All remaining ingredients and mix until well combined. Batter will be thick. Divide batter equally between 12 muffin cups. Cook until done, 15 to 17 minutes. If desired when done you may brush with some melted margarine and roll in sugar. I didn't find this to be necessary but it might be a nice change on occasion.
