Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsweetened plant milk I used soy milk
  • 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 and ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 and ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 and ⅓ cups mashed ripe bananas about 3 medium ones
  • ⅓ cup oil I used canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup vegan chocolate chips optional
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF or 200ºC and line a standard muffin tin with 12-15 paper liners.
  • Mix the plant milk and vinegar in a jar or bowl until well combined. Let the mixture rest at room temperature for at least 5 minutes. After this time, the milk will thicken and curdle.
  • In the meantime, add the dry ingredients to a large mixing bowl (flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt) and mix until well combined.
  • Add the mashed bananas, oil, vanilla extract, and the plant milk and vinegar mixture. Stir until well combined.
  • Add the vegan chocolate chips and stir again until well combined. Omit this step if you don’t want to add the chocolate chips.
  • Spoon the batter into liners, filling them all the way to the top.
  • Bake for 20 to 30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. 
  • Remove from the oven and let them cool completely on a cooling rack.
  • Serve your vegan banana muffins immediately.
  • Keep the leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. You can also freeze the muffins for up to 2 months. To thaw, just pull the muffins from the freezer and let them thaw at room temperature for several hours.

Notes

  • You could also use vegan butter instead of oil to make this banana muffin recipe or just use any type of oil you want.
  • Feel free to customize your vegan banana muffins with any type of unsweetened plant milk.
  • Make sure the sugar you’re using is vegan.
  • You could substitute the apple cider vinegar with some lemon juice.
  • I’ve never made these vegan muffins using a different type of flour myself, but it would probably work. Feel free to use a gluten-free flour blend, but keep in mind that you may need to adjust the amount of it.
  • Salt is optional, but it enhances the flavor of the vegan banana muffins.
