Chocolate Chunk Muffins.

Ingredients –

1 cup / 250ml soy milk

1 ½ tbsp lemon juice

1 tbsp apple sauce

1 cup caster sugar

â…“ cup sunflower oil

1 cup / 130g plain flour

2 tsp baking powder

½ tsp bicarbonate of soda (baking soda)

Pinch sea salt

1 cup chocolate chunks (or your filling of choice)

Yield: 10-12

Total Time: 30 minutes

 

Instructions –

 

  1. Preheat oven to 180c and fill a 12 hole muffin tray with cases.

  2. In a small bowl, mix your soy milk and lemon juice, set to one side for five minutes to curdle.

  3. Add your sugar, oil and apple sauce.

  4. In another bowl mix together your flour, baking powder, salt and bicarbonate of soda. Add your wet mix to the dry and gently mix together until just combined.

  5. Fold in your chocolate chunks (saving some for topping) and then distribute your mix between your muffin cases, sometimes I get all 12 but sometimes I get 10 or 11. You want them about ¾ full each.  Then top with any leftover chocolate chunks and bake in the oven for 18 minutes or until a cocktail stick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
