We love brunch! Sunday breakfasts and brunches are among our favorite meals, and nothing welcomes a new Sunday like the smell of delicious baking muffins, wafting through the house. And really, how often do you get that indulgence now that you are gluten-free and vegan?

[NOTE: This recipe post originally appeared in our National Celiac Awareness Month series.]

Today’s recipe comes to you from the cookbook, 150+ Nutritious and Delicious Recipes for Gluten Free Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner, by Linda Williams. This book is stuffed full of delicious gluten free recipes that had our mouths watering as we were eating them!

This is not a vegan book, so like other cookbooks, you will have to get creative with substitutions for some recipes. Luckily, many of the non-vegan items, like eggs, can simply be replaced with their vegan counterparts, such as Ener-G Egg Replacer.

Vegan, Gluten-Free Berry Vanilla Almond Muffins

Ingredients

1 1/2  cups Pamela’s Baking & Pancake Mix
1/2  cup slivered almonds (optional, you can toast them first if you wish)
1 Tablespoon Ener-G Egg Replacer plus 4 tbsp water
1/3 cup applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/3 cup vanilla almond milk
1/2  cup melted butter alternative (whatever your favorite is)
1/4 cup good olive oil
1/2 cup blackberries or blueberries

Directions

First, preheat oven to 325. Mix the pancake mix and almonds. Mix eggs, applesauce, vanilla, almond milk, melted butter, and olive oil in a separate bowl. Combine. Carefully blend in the berries of your choice, and be careful not to smash them up. Scoop and drop approximately 1/4 cup into muffin tins. Bake for about 25 minutes depending upon your oven.

Have these delicious muffins with your morning coffee, or a mimosa, and start your Sunday off with a treat!
