Ingredients:
• 2 cups – whole-wheat pastry flour (substitute, if needed, with 1 cup regular whole-wheat and 1 cup all-purpose)
• 1.5 cups – strawberries
• 1 cup – Blueberries
• 1/2 cup – non-dairy milk, like Almond or soy
• 1/2 cup – turbinado Sugar (use maple syrup instead for great flavour)
• 2 tbsp – flax meal
• 1 tsp – vanilla extract
• 4 tsp – baking powder
• 1/2 tsp – baking soda
• 1/4 tsp – salt
Method:
- Mix the whole-wheat pastry flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt in a bowl.
- Puree the strawberries in a blender along with the non-dairy milk. Place in a bowl. (You can substitute half the strawberry puree with an equal amount of apple sauce for some added sweetness and moistness).
- Add the flax meal and vanilla extract and mix well.
- Make a well in the flour and pour in the wet ingredients.
- Using just a few strokes of your ladle or whisk and mix until everything’s just moistened. Don’t overbeat – a few lumps are just fine.
- Just make sure you don’t have any visible dry flour.
- If the batter is too dry, add a little more non-dairy milk and mix it in.
- Add the blueberries and mix in.
- Pour the batter into a muffin tin lined with paper liners. If you don’t have paper liners, spray with oil.
- Sprinkle some sugar over the top of each muffin.
- Bake the muffins in a preheated 400 degree C oven for 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
- Cool the muffins on a rack for about 10 minutes, then slide the muffins out of the tin and continue cooling on the rack.
