Ingredients

Wet Ingredients:

  • 2 large ripe bananas mashed
  • 180 g granulated sugar
  • 240 ml soy milk
  • 2.5 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 75 ml vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

 Dry Ingredients:

  • 275 g all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 200 g fresh blueberries
  • 70 g pistachio kernels coarsely chopped

Instructions

Preparation:

  • Preheat your oven to 200 Celsius.
  • Line two 8-hole muffin trays with cupcake liners. I only have 6-hole muffin trays so I made the extra 4 muffins at the end.  
  • Grease all 16 liners with a drop of oil. Set aside.

Make the muffin batter:

  • Add the mashed bananas, sugar, soy milk, vinegar, oil and vanilla to a large bowl. Mix well. Now, gradually add your all-purpose flour to the mixture, followed by the baking powder and salt.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into the wet. Don’t over mix. Just make sure that there are no pockets of flour remaining.
  • Next, fold in your blueberries and coarsely chopped pistachios.
  • Finally, distribute your muffin batter equally between the 12 cupcake liners. Add the remaining pistachios and blueberries on top.

 Bake the muffins:

  • Your muffins are now ready to be baked! Place the tray/s into the centre of the preheated oven and bake for 21 minutes. They should be golden brown, and a skewer should come out completely clean.
  • Allow your pistachio muffins to cool in the tray/s for 10-15 minutes then transfer them to a cooling rack.
