Notes
- Special DietsYou can easily adapt this green muffin recipe for special diets. Here's how!Vegan muffins:Eggs - swap the eggs for 'flax eggs'. To replace the 2 eggs, mix 2 tablespoon ground flax (aka flaxmeal) with 6 tablespoon water. Allow to sit for a few minutes and it will thicken slightly. Add to the recipe where you add the eggs.Milk - use your favourite dairy free vegan milk. Soy, almond etc... all work perfectly.Butter - use any dairy free vegan butter or margarine.
- Gluten free muffins:Flour - swap for a gluten free all purpose (plain) flour.Baking powder - some baking powder contains gluten. Check the label and if it doesn't state anything then buy one that specifically says that it's gluten free.
