INGREDIENT NOTES:

ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR:

• Use all-purpose flour to prepare these muffins. They provide additional structure in these muffins. This flour soaks up the liquid properly, and it will hold its shape properly. Use the without gluten flour blend if required. We have to properly measure the flour quantity.

VEGAN CHOCO CHIPS:

• Vegan choco chips add a lot of sweet taste to these muffins. Some chips melt in the oven, so choose the chips that don’t melt if you want visible chips. Mix semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips to add more depth in taste.

ALMOND MILK:

• Use the almond milk to make these muffins. Almond milk makes the light cookies. Use the oats or soy milk instead if required; they also work well. Don’t use the cold milk as it doesn’t make the smooth consistency of the batter. Form the buttermilk by mixing the vegan milk with the vinegar if preferred.

OIL:

• Oil helps to make the soft and moist muffins. Use sunflower, canola, or any vegetable oil to make these muffins. It should taste neutral. We have to measure the oil carefully, or it will make them dense.

SUGAR:

• Sugar will help to add the sweet taste and aid in the browning of these muffins. Utilize white sugar or a blend of brown and white sugar, as only brown sugar will make the soft texture of these muffins.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. We heat the oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Apply the oil in the muffin tin to grease it properly
3. Stir the sugar, baking soda, flour, baking powder, salt, and flour in the bowl.
4. Grab the other bowl and mix the vinegar, oil, almond milk, and vanilla essence, and leave for two minutes.
5. Now mix both of these components together till they combine.
6. Include the chocolate chips in the mixture and fold them with care.
7. Add the batter till three-quarters in each cup.
8. Bake these muffins for eighteen to twenty minutes till they are clean.
9. Cool the muffins for ten minutes in the pan, then transfer them to the rack to cool further.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS:

TIPS:
