PREPARATION
These steps are followed for the preparation of Vegan Breakfast Muffin With Banana And Maple:
- Preheat The Oven: Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius and lightly grease a muffin tin or line it with a paper liner. Ensuring proper heat creates a moist and fluffy vegan breakfast muffin.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine ½ mashed banana and ½ tablespoon maple syrup until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon of almond milk and stir well. This forms the base of your healthy plant-based breakfast muffin.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together ¼ cup wholemeal flour and ¼ teaspoon baking powder. Gradually fold into the wet mixture until just combined, ensuring a soft and airy texture.
- Fill Muffin Tin: Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tin. Optionally, sprinkle oats or chopped nuts on top for added texture and flavour.
- Bake: Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
- Cool And Serve: Allow the muffin to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your quick vegan breakfast muffin warm or pack it for a healthy on-the-go snack.

TIPS
- Use Very Ripe Bananas: For natural sweetness and enhanced flavour, always use ripe bananas. This helps create a moist and soft vegan breakfast muffin.
- Do Not Overmix: Overmixing the batter can make the muffin dense. Fold the ingredients gently for a light and airy healthy breakfast muffin.
- Preheat Properly: Preheating the oven ensures even cooking and a golden top for your quick vegan snack.
- Add Texture Toppings: Sprinkle rolled oats, chopped nuts or seeds on top before baking for extra crunch and nutrition.
- Check Doneness: Insert a toothpick into the centre. If it comes out clean, your plant-based breakfast muffin is perfectly baked.
- Portion Control: Use a standard muffin tin to make single-serving muffins that are ideal for on-the-go breakfasts or packed snacks.
VARIATIONS
- Gluten-Free: Substitute wholemeal flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
- Nut-Free: Replace almond milk with oat or soy milk.
- Add-Ins: Incorporate a tablespoon of chopped nuts, dried fruits, or vegan chocolate chips for extra flavour and texture.
