Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In either a stand mixer with whip attachment, or a large bowl with a whisk, whip the aquafaba, powdered sugar, and tapioca starch (or cornstarch) until it forms soft foamy peaks, which resemble whipped egg whites.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream the room-temperature vegan butter and sugar until smooth. Slowly add the unsweetened plant-based milk and apple cider vinegar and continue mixing until well combined.
  4. Sift in the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until no dry flour is visible. Be careful not to overmix to avoid a lumpy batter.
  5. Fold in the whipped aquafaba and blueberries gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup nearly to the top. Sprinkle the additional sugar over the top of the muffins.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 24-27 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for five minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool.

Notes

  • 🧁 Measure Flour Like a Pro
  • 🧁
  • Spoon flour into your measuring cup and level it with a knife. Avoid scooping directly from the bag to prevent dense muffins from too much packed flour.
  • 🥄 Mix With The Touch of A Gentle Pony in the Mist
  • 🥄
  • Mix wet and dry ingredients until just combined. Overmixing can lead to tough muffins due to excess gluten development.
  • 🌡️ Room Temp Magic
  • 🌡️
  • Use room temperature ingredients, especially plant-based milk and vegan butter, for a smoother batter and better texture.
  • 🔵 Prevent Dat Purp
  • 🔵
  • Toss frozen blueberries in a little flour before adding to the batter. This stops them from sinking and releasing too much juice.
  • 🔄 Even Baking
  • 🔄
  • Rotate the muffin tin halfway through baking to ensure all muffins bake evenly, avoiding uneven oven hotspots.
