Description
These muffins are sweet, fluffy and taken to the next level with a sweet streusel topping. They’re the perfect snack, easy dessert, or vegan breakfast to share over morning coffee. All you need is 10 simple ingredients.
Ingredients
- 1 cup mashed banana
- 1/2 cup dates, soaked to soften and mashed until smooth (see note)
- 1/3 cup melted vegan butter
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 tbsp egg replacer (I used JustEgg liquid egg replacer. If using powdered egg replacer or flax egg, do 1 tbsp mixed with 3 tbsp water)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
Streusel topping:
- 1/4 cup vegan butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease or line a 12 cup muffin tin.
- In a mixing bowl, combine bananas, dates, vegan butter, egg replacement, sugar, cinnamon and vanilla.
- Add the flour, baking soda and salt and mix until just combined.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Spoon into prepared muffin cups.
- Add streusel topping ingredients to a small mixing bowl. Use your hands to mix together until crumbly. Add on top of muffins.
- Bake 25-27 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean and they are golden brown on top. Allow to cool for 5 minutes in the tin and then transfer to a cooling rack.
Notes
Soak dates in hot water for 10 minutes to soften. Drain, then use a food processor or potato masher to mash until relatively smooth.
