Vegan Blueberry Oat Muffins with Streusel | Muffins de Arándano Vegano

9/30/2019 0 Comments

Moist blueberry muffins are complimented with the sweetness of ripe bananas, fall spices, vanilla and our gem ingredient - lemon zest. The lemon brings the muffins to life! I grabbed it on a last minute whim and boy am I so glad I did. It's amazing. Next level!! We'll be using coconut sugar to keep the glycemic index low and much less than a standard muffin. You can choose to use oil or go oil-free. The batter features oats and oat flour to keep things simple. Enjoy these anytime of day. We sure did. Happy baking my friends! With love, Christa

Cinnamon Vanilla Oatmeal with Fresh Berries

6/21/2016 0 Comments

There is something so comforting about a big bowl of oatmeal in the cool, brisk morning. After a big thunderstorm rolled in last night, the air was fresh, crisp and cool. A smoothie was out of the question, oatmeal was the answer. I usually make the same batch of Oatmeal Raisin, it is our favorite, but thought I'd try something new so I could share with you all. Few ingredients create a sweet and filling base. Oats, dairy free milk, cinnamon, vanilla and a pinch of salt, sweetened with cranberries, though maple syrup or agave could be used. I like to keep it simple, so tossed it all in my rice cooker, pressed cook, read a book and just as I was getting into the book, breakfast is ready! Easy! I stirred in 1/2 cup of fresh blueberries to create that "pie" experience of warm berries bursting in your mouth. Plus, my dad would notoriously do this, so it reminded me of him. Then, as if that were not enough, top it with more dairy free milk, a drizzle of agave or maple syrup and lots of fresh berries. Breakfast is served! Beautiful, nutritious, quick, easy and so healthy!

Watch the video or get the recipe below.

Ingredients:
2/3 Cups Oats
1 1/2 Cups Dairy Free Milk
1 tsp Cinnamon
Pinch Sea Salt
1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
2/3 Cups Cranberries or other dried fruit

Once cooked stir in:
1/2 Cup Blueberries

Top with:
1/4 cup Dairy Free Milk
Opt: Drizzle of Agave
Additional Raspberries, Blueberries and Blackberries.

Peaceful Preparation:

Add 2/3 Cup of Oats to a Rice Cooker or Small Pot. Add 1 1/2 Cups Dairy Free Milk, 1 tsp Cinnamon, a pinch of salt, 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract and 2/3 Cup Dried Cranberries, mix well. Press cook if using a rice cooker or proceed to make on the stove-top.
Once cooked, stir in 1/2 Cup Blueberries. This will make them hot and taste like pie! Divide into two bowls.
Top with 1/4 cup of Dairy Free Milk split between two bowls, opt to add a drizzle of agave syrup. Top with additional berries and serve!

Raspberry Oat Muffins with Chocolate Chunks

2/5/2016 0 Comments

Moist, juicy raspberries bursting with goodness nestled against melted chocolate all inside a refined sugar free, oil-free, vegan muffin? Sign me up. This recipe was created while making blueberry muffins, both varieties are heavenly, with my love for chocolate these were my personal favorite. I shared some with our non-vegan, sugar-loving friend and he said he really liked them and didn't even have to cover them in sugar haha. Success! I love sharing especially when good feedback comes with it, then I know it is worthy of your kitchens. Happy baking and best wishes for a great weekend!
With love, Christa

Prep Time: 15 Minutes | Bake Time: 28-38 Minutes | Servings: 6 Muffins

Ingredients:

1/2 Cup Almond Milk (or favorite non-dairy milk)
1/2 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
3/4 Cup Oats
1/2 Cup Oat Flour (oats ground into flour)
1/4 Cup Medjool Dates (soaked until soft)
3/4 tsp Baking Powder
1/4 tsp Baking Soda
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 Cup Pureed Banana
1 Tbsp Agave (Maple Syrup or your favorite)
1/2 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
1/2 Cup Raspberries
1/4 Cup Chocolate Chunks or Chips (vegan)

Peaceful Preparation:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Fill muffin tin with cupcake liners (I used silicone and lightly greased them.) You can also lightly spray a muffin pan and pour directly into the pan.
In a medium bowl, combine the milk and apple cider vinegar, set aside. This creates a buttermilk and will allow it to curdle.
Take the soaked dates and mix with 2 tbsp soaking water + more if needed in a food processor. Pulse, scrape sides and pulse to create a date paste.
In another medium bowl, mix together the oats, oat flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Make a well in the center, add the curdled milk, banana puree, date paste, agave, and vanilla extract. Stir together the wet ingredients and then mix the wet into the dry, until dry are just moistened as not to overmix. Fold in the raspberries and chocolate chunks or chips.
Fill each muffin cup with batter until nearly full. Bake 28-38 minutes. The top should be firm to the touch, if a knife goes in you may hit a raspberry or chocolate but no batter should appear. I baked ours for about 38 minutes. Remove from oven, cool in pan 10 minutes and then cool the rest of the way on a cooling rack.

Notes:

Use certified gluten-free oats for gluten-free.
Try doubling the amount of chocolate, I haven't but I bet it would be even better.
This recipe doubles fantastically! Extra muffins can be shared or frozen.
If using frozen raspberries, extend baking time.

Oats, bananas, dates with a touch of agave create a unique take on your standard muffin oozing with sugar and oil. These are refined sugar-free, dairy & oil-free and if you use gluten-free oats, gluten-free.

Ingredients:

1/2 Cup Almond Milk (or favorite non-dairy milk)

Peaceful Preparation:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Fill muffin tin with cupcake liners (I used silicone and lightly greased them, worked great, no sticking.) You can also lightly spray a muffin pan and pour directly into the pan.
