Vegan Chocolate Chunk Pumpkin Muffins

April 6, 2020 by Lisa Le Leave a Comment

Jump to Recipe

These vegan chocolate chunk pumpkin muffins are the perfect fluffy breakfast that goes deliciously with your morning coffee or tea! One bowl, 30 minutes to make!

Apparently spring is the new pumpkin season because I found a stray, abandoned can of pumpkin puree in my pantry that I cracked into for chickpea pumpkin curry but then was left with 2 cups of it in my fridge. I was craving pumpkin muffins (also I will be experimenting with lemon poppyseed muffins!) and I revamped an older recipe that I loved the flavour and texture of, but I wanted those beautiful poofy muffins with a super soft crumb.

I’ve been having a lot of fun cooking up some deliciousness and having Eddie around more often to help tidy up after (and by help I mean clean up after me LOL) I’ve been making a lot of tasty stuff! Soon to be coming will be vegan mongolian beef made with soy curls that has been absolutely game changing it’s so dang tasty! My patrons over on Patreon have gotten the recipe early but I’ll be posting it for you all very soon (I still have to film the video haha)

Anyway, I don’t have much to say as there hasn’t been much happening in my life aside from family drama and feeling very helpless as the world navigates this pandemic, but I have been coping with a lot of Animal Crossing, sewing projects, and watching a lot of 30 Rock with Eddie.

Hope you try these vegan chocolate chunk vegan muffins (because no egg or soy milk requireeeed) since they are very pantry-friendly!

Chocolate Chunk Pumpkin Muffins

These perfectly fluffy pumpkin muffins have a lovely hint of pumpkin spice and are studded with chocolate chunks. Super tasty and perfect for breakfast (or dessert :D)

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) vegetable oil (I used canola)
  • 1/2 cup (100 g) brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup (105 g) white sugar
  • 1 cup (240 g) pumpkin puree
  • 2 cups (266 g) all purpose flour
  • 2 tsp (11 g) baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) kosher salt
  • 1 tsp (3 g) pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 cup (72 g) vegan chocolate chunks

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F (180C).

In a large mixing bowl, combine vegetable oil, brown sugar, white sugar and pumpkin puree until well combined. Try to break up any chunks of brown sugar as best you can.

Sift in flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice and fold in to mix until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chunks, then divide into 12 muffins (either oiled or lined with cupcake liners). Bake for 25 minutes, test for doneness with a cupcake tester or toothpick poked into the middle (you should have it come out clean or with moist crumbs attached).

Let cool on a wire rack and enjoy! Store in an airtight container and enjoy with a good schmear of vegan butter with some tea :)

My body got really mad at me for overdoing it on the salt last week so lately all I've been craving is fresh veggies. I piled on my vegan egg salad over some salad greens with tomatoes, cucumber, sunflower seeds, and coconut bacon.
๐Ÿฅ—
It's a pretty hearty salad that hit the protein hard with a hearty dose of eggy flavour! Eddie thinks I'm a little weird for eating tofu egg salad like this but sometimes you don't feel like bread (I know, me? Not want bread?!)
๐Ÿฅ—
If you want the recipe, I have a swipe up in my stories and you can find the recipe on my blog! (http://bit.ly/2wLWMr3) we make this once every few weeks for meal prep for Eddie and for when I am too scatterbrained to remember to make lunch ๐Ÿ˜…

New recipe is live!! Y'all know me and my love for dumplings and these red curry flavoured dumplings are up on the channel and the blog.
๐ŸฅŸ
I feel like I could have improved the camera angle for capturing the dumpling folding but honestly seeing it from this angle to see what your hands are supposed to do is helpful too. Either way, go have a watch and I'd love to see your dumpling creations (bonus if you wanna challenge yourself and try braided dumplings!)
๐ŸฅŸ
Have you tried braided dumplings before? It was actually really satisfying to really get a handle of it in the end. Swipe up in my stories for a video link and the recipe! (Recipe: https://bit.ly/3rhcg08)

I love having mock meats around but tofu will always have a soft spot in my heart! So many different types of tofu and so many different textures can be achieved, but honestly one of the most regular uses for firm tofu in our house is making tofu egg breakfast sandos with it!I have a recipe on my blog for these sandwiches (https://thevietvegan.com/vegan-egg-mcmuffins/) and they are deliciously eggy with this black salt marinade! Eddie makes this all the time, and often doesn't even bother with marinade sometimes, he just sprinkles black salt and pepper on top after frying both sides in the cast iron.I teamed up with some other fellow vegan creators who are sharing their tofu tips today so go check em out!โœจ @muriellebanackissa made Sweet and Spicy Nooch Coated Tofuโ 
โœจ @plantbasedkristy made Shredded Tofu Magicโ 
โœจ @plentyfullvegan made Tofu Fetaโ 
โœจ @thecanadianafrican made Suya Tofu Skewersโ 
โœจ @twomarketgirls made Crispy Herby Tofu Croutons!#thevietvegan #thevietveganrecipes #whatveganseat #veganfoodshare #bestofvegan #veganfood #tofurecipes

AD - Vegan satay with luscious, spiced peanut sauce and crunchy, stinky, umami green papaya salad? Yes please! Eddie thoroughly enjoyed my recipe tests for this recipe and promptly smothered this peanut sauce over anything and everything.
๐Ÿฑ
Recipe and video are on the blog and YouTube channel, please check it out and enjoy the new filming setup that I've been doing lately :) I think this makes for a much better video filmed this way!
๐Ÿฑ
I made this satay recipe as a collab with @monbento to show a delicious lunch idea that you can meal prep ahead of time! Y'all know I am a sucker for delicious food in my bento box, so I'm so jazzed that monbento gave me a code to save y'all 10%.
๐Ÿฑ
Use code THEVIETVEGAN10 on top of the sales happening right now to get you an adorable bento!

Henlo it's been a very busy week on my end but I've been working hard to try to get back up to 2x a week uploads again. So last week I posted two bookish videos and today I posted my sourdough discard chocolate chip cookies!
๐Ÿช
Crisp edges, chewy centre, crunchy flakes of @maldonsalt on top...MMM. A perfect way to use up some sourdough discard!

Video is up on the channel, and recipe is on the blog๐Ÿฅฐhttps://bit.ly/2LilQk3#thevietvegan #thevietveganrecipes #whatveganseat #sourdoughdiscard #sourdough #๐Ÿช
