More vegan dishes

This post was originally published as Cornbread Muffins by Laurel on Health Food blog.
Every now and then it’s fun to make a big batch of muffins to have for breakfast. This morning I tried Alex Jamieson’s recipe for Cornbread Muffins from her Living Vegan for Dummies book. Wow, they were so fluffy and moist! Next time I’ll definitely make a double recipe so I can save a batch in the freezer. To see the recipe you can pick up a copy of the book on Amazon, or preview a copy on Google Books. Her cornbread muffins recipe is actually available in the book preview at this link. Scroll through until you see it.
These are great for breakfast, but would also be perfect for holiday dinners or anytime you want a muffin. We scarfed ours down this morning with a spicy butter I made using Earth Balance (vegan) butter and chopped fresh red chili.
I made a few substitutions in the recipe. Feel free to do what I did, or create your own substitutions.
  • I used maple sugar (found at the health food store) instead of sucanat or turbinado sugar
  • I used unsweetened almond milk instead of soy, rice, or hemp milk
  • I used safflower oil instead of canola oil
If you’re at all curious about vegan cooking, Living Vegan for Dummies is a wonderful place to start. It explains the basics and will give you tons of ideas about how to incorporate more vegan dishes into your daily diet in a delicious, no-fuss kind of way.
