Instructions
 

Make the Vegan Buttermilk

  1. Add the plant milk to a glass measuring cup with the apple cider vinegar. Give it a quick stir and set aside.

Make the Batter

  1. Add the cassava flour, grain-free baking powder, baking soda, and salt to a mixing bowl and mix until evenly combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, mash the bananas, and add the oil, sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir until evenly mixed.
  3. Add the wet mixture to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Add the vegan buttermilk and stir until no streaks of flour remain.
  4. If you are adding in chopped nuts or chocolate chips, do so during this step.

Time to Bake

  1. Scoop the batter into reusable muffin cups to fill them about 3/4 of the way.
  2. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
  3. Let cool a few minutes before consuming. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

*A note about granulated sugar: Not all granulated sugar is vegan, make sure to choose a USDA Organic variety to ensure it is not processed with bone char, an animal ingredient.
  • Not Vegan? Use melted butter instead of oil. Use dairy milk instead of plant milk.
  • Gluten-Free not grain-free? Use regular baking soda for this recipe or use a standard 1:2 gluten-free baking flour replacement and reduce to 1 1/2 cups.
