VEGAN CRANBERRY & ORANGE MUFFINS

These light, flavourful muffins are topped with a sharp, sweet swirl of cranberry sauce and a slightly crunchy streusel topping. Perfect for a weekend breakfast treat (preferably eaten in bed, during a lie in) or an afternoon snack with a cup of tea.

I love that red juicy cranberry sauce peaking out the streusel topping. So inviting!

VEGAN CRANBERRY & ORANGE MUFFINS RECIPE
A great way to use leftover cranberry sauce! Light, fluffy muffins with a sweet, crunchy streusel topping.



INGREDIENTS
DRY INGREDIENTS

• 320 g self-raising flour (or plain flour with 2 tsp baking powder)
• 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp ground mixed spice
• Zest of 1 medium orange
• A small pinch of salt

WET INGREDIENTS

• 120 ml unsweetened dairy-free milk
• 80 ml orange juice
• 8 tbsp unsweetened soy yoghurt
• 160 ml maple syrup or agave nectar
• 4 tbsp mild-flavoured vegetable oil
• 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

STREUSEL TOPPING

• 4 tbsp leftover cranberry sauce
• 4 tbsp rolled oats
• 4 tbsp plain flour
• 3 tbsp crushed pecans (or other nuts)
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• 3 tbsp mild-flavoured vegetable oil

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F and line a muffin tin with 12 muffin cases. 
2. Stir the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. In a separate bowl or jug, mix the wet ingredients. Gently combine the wet and the dry until you have a smooth batter.
3. Divide the mixture equally between the 12 muffin cases. 
4. Dollop a teaspoon of cranberry sauce on top of each muffin and use a toothpick to swirl it into the mixture.
5. In a small bowl, combine the streusel topping ingredients (except the cranberry sauce) until you have a slightly dense, crumbly mixture. Top each muffin with a handful. 
6. Bake for 25 minutes until golden brown. 
7. Leave to cool for 10 minutes before enjoying!
