Notes

Notes to Help You Make Perfect Vegan Muffins:
  • Don’t overmix the batter or the muffins will become dense.
  • Baking time will vary depending on the oven you own and your altitude. Watch your muffins around the 20-minute mark to check for doneness.
  • Store the muffins in an airtight container on the countertop.
  • Don’t refrigerate your muffins or they will dry out.
  • The muffins will keep at room temperature for 3-4 days.
  • To freeze, wrap each muffin in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe airtight bag. Freeze for up to 1 month. When ready to eat, place on the countertop at room temperature to defrost.
