TIPS

  • Make your own muffin liners by cutting parchment paper into 5-inch squares.
  • For an extra pop of color, save some fresh blueberries and raspberries for pushing into the top of each muffin just before baking.
  • PLANT-BASED: This recipe is eggless and dairy-free! Mori-Nu Silken Tofu Firm creates a moist crumb while adding important nutrients.
  • GLUTEN-FREE: We used gluten-free 1-to-1 baking flour (1 1/4 cup) with excellent results! Make sure to check for gluten-free labeling on other ingredients
