Ingredients

Scale

Fruit and Flavorings

  • 1 cup fresh cherries, washed, pitted, and chopped
  • 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup natural sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon natural gelling agent
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup plant-based milk
  • 2 tablespoons plant-based butter (natural), melted
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cherries: Wash and pit the fresh cherries, then chop them into bite-sized pieces to ensure even distribution of fruit in every muffin.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the plant-based milk, melted plant-based butter (natural), apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract (natural) until well combined.
  3. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift the all-purpose flour with baking powder, baking soda, natural gelling agent, salt, and natural sugar to ensure even mixing and help muffins rise evenly.
  4. Bring wet and dry together: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing just until combined to maintain a light, tender crumb. Avoid overmixing.
  5. Add cherries and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural): Gently fold in the chopped cherries and a splash of vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) to add subtle complexity to the flavor.
  6. Bake the muffins: Divide the batter evenly into a muffin tin lined with paper cups. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe cherries for the best flavor and juiciness.
  • Do not overmix the batter; keeping it slightly lumpy ensures a tender crumb.
  • Bring plant-based milk and plant-based butter (natural) to room temperature before mixing for better texture.
  • Check muffin doneness a few minutes before the indicated baking time due to oven variations.
  • Sprinkle natural sugar on top before baking for a sweet, crunchy crust.
  • These muffins can be customized by substituting fruits, adding nuts, or adjusting sweeteners.
