Apple Chai Vegan Muffins

For me, nothing screams Christmas like cosy sweet spice! These Apple Chai muffins are bursting with warm spices and sweet apple goodness.

The blend of cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, and nutmeg creates a chai-inspired flavor profile that works perfectly with the natural sweetness of apple purée and coconut sugar. Plus, they're entirely vegan, so everyone can enjoy these scrumptious muffins.



RECIPE:

Ingredients:

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to (180°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, and nutmeg until well combined.

  3. In a separate bowl, combine the apple purée, dairy-free milk, olive oil, and maple syrup. Mix until the wet ingredients are well incorporated.

  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold the mixture together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  5. Gently fold in the diced apples, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full. Top some with apple slices if you like. 

  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Whether you're baking for a festive gathering or craving a cozy snack by the fire, these Vegan Apple Chai Muffins hit the spot. No need for elaborate decorations; the aroma alone will be a crowd pleaser!

So, keep it easy, keep it tasty, and let these muffins be the uncomplicated joy you need during the holiday season.

Frequently asked questions about becoming Vegan

Q: Are vegan recipes healthy?
A: Absolutely! Vegan recipes are centered around plant-based ingredients, which are packed with essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals. By following a balanced vegan diet, you can enjoy a wide variety of delicious and nutritious meals.

Q: Can I get enough protein on a vegan diet?
A: Yes, you can! Contrary to popular belief, there are plenty of plant-based sources of protein, such as beans, lentils, tofu, tempeh, seitan, quinoa, and more. Incorporating a variety of these protein-rich foods into your vegan recipes will help you meet your protein needs.

Q: What about calcium and iron?
A: Vegan diets can provide ample amounts of calcium and iron. Foods like leafy greens, almonds, tahini, fortified plant-based milk, tofu, and lentils are great sources of these essential minerals. Pairing iron-rich foods with vitamin C sources, like citrus fruits or bell peppers, can enhance iron absorption.

Q: Are vegan recipes expensive?
A: Not necessarily! While some specialty vegan products may be pricier, a well-planned vegan diet can be quite affordable. Staples like grains, legumes, fruits, and vegetables are often budget-friendly, especially when purchased in season or in bulk.

Q: How can I replace dairy products in vegan recipes?
A: There are numerous plant-based alternatives available for dairy products. For milk, you can use soy milk, almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk. Replace butter with plant-based margarine or coconut oil, and try using cashews or silken tofu for creamy textures in recipes.

Q: Can I still enjoy desserts on a vegan diet?
A: Absolutely! Vegan desserts can be just as indulgent and delicious as traditional ones. You can use substitutes like coconut milk, almond milk, or cashew cream in place of dairy cream, and flax eggs or aquafaba as egg replacers. Get creative with ingredients like dates, bananas, cocoa, and nuts to whip up scrumptious vegan treats.
