You’re probably wondering how in god’s name apple cider vinegar ended up in blueberry muffins.
It is quite literally the secret ingredient that (when combined with baking soda) creates that soft and spongey, yet simultaneously crisp and crumbly texture you hope for in a muffin.
What can’t this stuff do?!
I use ACV in everything from cleaning countertops to drinking it as a pre workout boost.
These muffins will satisfy all of your cravings and still leave you feeling light and satisfied.
You are not going to want to skip the epic brown sugar crumble AND a maple glaze to top the whole thing off.
Vegan Oatmeal Blueberry Muffins!
As highlighted above, it’s the apple cider vinegar that gives these vegan oatmeal blueberry muffins that texture you would usually rely on eggs for.
I opted for an organic oat milk as my main wet ingredient but you could definitely use hemp milk or a nut milk if you wanted to.
And if you’re familiar with the blog, it likely comes as no surprise that I went with my go-to gluten free baking flour to make these gf.

Hi Salima!
This looks amazing but I don’t see oatmeal in the ingredient list. Am I supposed to use that instead of flour? Thank you!
Thank you for the heads up Myracles! I’ve added them into the list.
