Vegan Banana Apricot Muffins
First things first, let’s set the stage for your muffin-making masterpiece. What do you need? Let’s gather the ingredients!
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas (the riper, the better!)
- 1 cup of chopped dried apricots
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup of rolled oats
- 1/3 cup of maple syrup (or agave, if you’re feeling adventurous)
- 1/4 cup of almond milk (or any milk you like)
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (because it makes everything better)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Don’t forget to give it a little pep talk to make sure it’s ready to go!
- In a large bowl, mash those very ripe bananas until they’re smooth. Embrace the mushiness!
- Add the maple syrup, almond milk, and vanilla extract to your banana mush. Stir it up like you’re the mad scientist of muffins!
- In another bowl, mix together the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Combine the dry ingredients like you’re on a mission to save the world from flavorlessness.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding them together. Be gentle; they’re in a delicate muffin relationship!
- Now, toss in those chopped dried apricots. Give them a warm welcome in the batter. They’ve been waiting for this moment.
- Line a muffin tin with liners or grease it up. Scoop the batter into the cups, filling them about 2/3 full.
- Bake in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they’re golden and a toothpick comes out clean. You know they’re ready to party!
- Allow them to cool for a few minutes before digging in. Enjoy your scrumptious, vegan creations!
