Vegan Rhubarb Cinnamon Streusel Muffins image

A delicious way to use fresh rhubarb! These muffins are moist with a sweet cinnamon buttery topping that works so well with the tartness of the rhubarb. I adapted this recipe from the original to make it vegan for my husband. I can't tell the difference between the two, they're both so tasty!

Time 1h30m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups water
⅓ cup flax seeds
1 cup soy milk
1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 ¼ cups brown sugar
½ cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups chopped rhubarb
½ cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon vegan margarine (such as Earth Balance®), cut into cubes
¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Bring water and flax seeds to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Strain mixture to remove seeds. Allow to cool to lukewarm.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 18 muffin cups with paper liners.
  • Mix soy milk and lemon juice together in a small bowl. Set aside until curdled, about 5 minutes.
  • Combine flour, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl.
  • Blend brown sugar and oil in a separate bowl. Whisk in 1/2 cup flax egg mixture, curdled soy milk, and vanilla extract. Stir sugar mixture and rhubarb into the flour mixture until flour is just incorporated.
  • Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full. Mix brown sugar, vegan margarine, and cinnamon together to make streusel topping. Spoon a little streusel topping over each muffin.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
