Vegan Blueberry Muffins


Well it seems like forever. And today I thought wow I might as well delete my blog I never write here anymore! But today I realized I need to write about all my vegan baking adventures!! My sweet baby girl is allergic to several things- milk, eggs, peanuts, tomatoes, soy, pineapples, cashews, and chicken... She is 13 months and baby food no longer fills her up. So I have been on an mission to figure out what to bake for my sweet little angel. Along the way I have had a lot of fun, and she seems to enjoy everything I have made so far:

Oatmeal waffles
Jam Swirled Pancakes
Zucchini Muffins
Vanilla Cupcakes
and... Blueberry Muffins

Today I just felt like blueberry muffins soooo I checked out Baking Illustrated from the local library and decided to make some. They were absolutely AMAZING! Gabby kept on pointing to them and crying and I felt really bad soo I did a quick search on the internet and found some vegan blueberry muffins! I halved the recipe to make 6 adorable little muffins. She is in LOVE. As we speak she is finishing off one whole muffin!
