Ingredients
Muffin batter
  • 1 cup (240ml) almond milk unsweetened
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • ½ cup coconut oil, melted
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
  • 2 cups (260g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups (250g) fresh blackberries, cut in half
Streusel topping
  • ½ cup (70g) all purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp brown sugar
  • 60g (¼ cup) vegan butter, room temperature
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 175C (350F) and place 12 paper liners in a muffin tin.

Streusel topping
  1. Start by mixing together the flour, brown sugar and vegan butter in a small bowl. I find it easiest to pinch it together with my fingers. Put it in the fridge while you prepare the muffin batter.

Batter
  1. In a mixing bowl, stir together the milk, lemon juice, zest and vanilla. Let it sit for 10 minutes to infuse the flavours and for the milk to curdle a little. Stir in the sugar, coconut sugar and oil.
  2. Sift in the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda and salt and stir until it just comes together. Do not over mix!
  3. Toss the blackberries in a tablespoon of flour and then gently fold them into the batter. Scoop into the prepared muffin tin and top with the streusel.

  4. Bake the muffins for 17 to 20 min, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  5. Let your muffins cool down for about 20 min before removing them from the muffin tin, vegan muffins can be fragile until cool. Let them cool down completely on a cooling rack before stirring in an airtight container.

    Enjoy!
