Let’s go, there’s no time to lose. When I mean lightning fast, that’s the way it should be. All joking aside, take a quick breath and then you’re ready to go. Perhaps you have already noticed that I live in the country. Right now berry season is starting and I am overjoyed because I get to harvest fresh berries every day. Starting with Currants , about Strawberries , raspberries and soon blackberries. Once again I was in the kitchen in front of the freshly harvested raspberries and thought of muffins, since I had little time. Perfect!
Vegan Raspberry Muffins – 1-2-3 Ready!
The basis is always a good flour, here I use a fine spelt flour. However, the Muffins also excellent with my gluten-free flour mix. Then we need a leavening agent, here I use baking soda in combination with apple cider vinegar. Raw cane sugar, a banana for better binding, some bourbon vanilla and homemade almond milk. Oh yes, I must not forget the freshly harvested raspberries, of course. You’re ready to go.
Vegan baking, even if it has to go really quickly
The first and most important rule, if you want to do it quickly, is to preheat the oven. How many times have I stood in the kitchen and been annoyed that I forgot this simple step. Muffin tray Out, muffin tins in. Then the fuss would be over. The only thing missing is the dough. Here I use more and more often my Blendtec (advertising, because brand name), because it is incredibly fast and easy with the dough program. Perhaps there is also a bit of imagination, since it is not slower in a bowl and simple stirring by hand.
Perhaps at this point a word about raspberries. What actually makes them so healthy?
- Rich in vitamin C and provitamin A (immune system & vision)
- Particularly rich in anthocyanins (antioxidant) protects against free radicals
- Resveratrol (good for the cardiovascular system)
- Phenolic acid (is said to have an anti-cancer effect)
- Very high content of iron
That was already the most important summary. Unfortunately, not all of the above ingredients are heat resistant and are lost during baking. That’s why it’s always worth saving a handful of fresh berries and simply snacking on them as a raw food.
What goes with our lightning fast beauties? One scoop Vanilla ice cream is my favorite combination. Alternatively, they taste wonderful with powdered sugar with a cup of coffee, Golden Milk or a creamy Chocolate Chia Smoothie .
We summarize: The muffins take just 45 minutes, including prep time, and get by with 10 ingredients. 1 bowl, 1 muffin baking sheet and go!
The raspberry flash muffins are:
- Locker & Fluffig
