giving in to peer pressure

[brightlywoven]

Since it doesn't seem tenable (or polite) to keep reading journals or posting using my husband's LJ, I have made my own.

Herewith, due to popular demand, is a recipe for vegan muffins, as made by me for the end of Hilary Taurithon meeting:

Berry Vegan muffins
(This is adapted/stolen from Australian cooking godess Stephanie Alexander's Cook's Companion. Big orange book of love. For equally easy muffins, change the soy yoghurt to actual yoghurt, or use 3/4 cup of milk and 1 egg. They all work)

- 220g plain flour
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 125g sugar
- 1 cup of soy yoghurt (or see above - berry added yoghurt obviously = more berries)
- 3/4 cup of vegetable oil
- 200g berries (eg blue, rasp, boysen etc. I wouldn't use straw)

Sift the dry ingredients together. Make a well. Mix the wet ingredients. Pour this into the well.
Stir until just combined. Add the berries. Stir once or twice more (muffins much better with less stirring).

Bake in muffin tray at 180 deg for 20-25 min. This makes 12.

When I get round to learning how to bake (a long-postponed ambition), I will remember this recipe. Thank you. ;)

Yay! I hadn't realised you'd signed up till just now when I saw your username on parrot_knight's entry about the fire stuff on Broad Street. Welcome to JL-land! I'm also really pleased you've posted the recipe.. I'll have a go as soon as the current soya-yoghurt-drought eases up :-)
