Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 12-cup standard muffin tin.
  2. 2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the King Arthur Measure for Measure flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. 3. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer or stand mixer, cream together the room temperature vegan butter, ½ cup of the granulated sugar, and the packed brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
  4. 4. Beat in the almond milk and Just Egg until just combined. Don't overmix.

  5. 5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. 6. Gently fold in the mixed berries using a spatula. If using frozen berries, toss them lightly in 1 tbsp of the flour mixture first (see Notes/Tips).
  7. 7. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. 8. Sprinkle the tops of the muffins evenly with the remaining 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar.
  9. 9. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. (Check muffins around the 23-25 minute mark, as the baking time might vary slightly).
  10. 10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5-10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Note

  • Baking Time: Keep an eye on the muffins towards the end of the baking time. Start checking for doneness around 23-25 minutes.
  • Vegan Butter: For best results, use a vegan butter that comes in stick form.
  • Milk: Any unsweetened non-dairy milk like soy, oat, or cashew milk can be used instead of almond milk.
  • Egg Substitute: ¼ cup of Just Egg is used here. A flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water, rested for 5 minutes) can often be substituted, though the texture might be slightly different.
  • Berries: If using frozen berries, do not thaw them. Gently toss them in about 1 tablespoon of the measured flour mixture before folding them into the batter – this helps prevent them from sinking and bleeding color excessively.
  • Storage: Store completely cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze them for up to 2 months.
  • Lemon Berry: Add the zest of 1 medium lemon to the wet ingredients for a bright flavor.
  • Single Berry: Use 1 ½ cups of your favorite berry, like blueberries or raspberries.
  • Chocolate Chip Berry: Reduce berries slightly and fold in ½ cup of dairy-free chocolate chips.
  • Warm Spice: Add ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon and ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg to the dry ingredients.

Frequently Asked Questions

Expand All:
Can I use a different gluten-free flour?

This recipe is designed for King Arthur Measure for Measure. Other 1-to-1 gluten-free baking blends might work, but results can vary. Check if your blend includes xanthan gum.

Why did my berries sink?

This can happen if the batter is too thin or if using thawed frozen berries. Tossing frozen berries (straight from the freezer) in a little flour before adding them helps them stay suspended. Ensure your vegan butter isn't overly softened or melted.

How do I make these nut-free?

Simply use a nut-free non-dairy milk like oat milk or soy milk, and ensure your chosen vegan butter is also certified nut-free.

Can I reduce the sugar?

You can try slightly reducing the sugar, but it will affect the tenderness, moisture, and browning of the muffins.
