These Easy Vegan Banana Blueberry Crumb Muffins have everything you need in a good Vegan Muffin plus more. These muffins are currently my favorite. They are not one of the healthiest I have made in this blog, but they sure taste amazing!
WHAT IS A PERFECT MUFFIN?
- Texture – A perfect muffin should be moist inside. If it is a fruit muffin, it should have plenty of that fruit in there.
- Size – Bigger the better, not just for the size but that also lets the muffin cook longer and hence achieve that perfect texture.
- Sweetness – A muffin technically can be eaten for breakfast. So too much sweetness makes it a little unacceptable for breakfast (I don’t mind it at all though).
Mistakes do avoid when making muffins:
Over mixing the batter – We need good muscle to bake good bread. But for a good muffin, way less mixing is what is needed. Over mixing the batter leads to a dense and chewy muffin. Mix the batter just until the dry and wet ingredients are combined.
Baking at the wrong temperature – The muffins need moderate heat and a little extended baking time to get the perfect texture. I find that the muffins that I bake in my large muffin tin tend to be much softer inside than the ones that I bake in the mini tins.
Domed top – Muffin needs a good dome top. So fill them up all the way. That gives a beautiful and well-risen muffin with a dome top (just like the bakery ones).
