FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO MASH BANANA?
The easiest and fuss-free way to mash banana is using a bowl/plate and a fork. Just peel the bananas, add them in a bowl and mash it with a fork or a potato smasher. Alternatively you can also grind it or blend it using a blender or food processor. But this creates an extra work of washing this equipment after use. It is not necessary to mash the bananas completely smooth, but if you like it completely smooth then use a food processor.

HOW TO STORE THESE BANANA NUT MUFFINS?
Allow the muffins to cool down completely. Place them in an airtight container.

Sure! You can use 7 inches cake tin. Bake at a preheated oven at 180° C for 30 to 35 minutes or a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.

WHAT NUTS ARE BEST IN THIS RECIPE?
You can use mixed nuts like I did though it depends upon your palate preference. It’s amazing with pecans or walnuts in these muffins. The texture and flavor of nuts pairs well with the tenderness of the muffins and sweetness of the bananas.

CAN I OMIT THE NUTS?
YES! The recipe will still work even if the nuts are omitted. I make it nut-free sometimes and it just turns out amazing with super soft, moist and scrumptious muffins. You can also replace them with some chocolate chunks or chips to make chocolate chip banana bread.

Eggless Vanilla Muffins are soft, light and fluffy baked treat made without eggs. It can be made easily at home using simple pantry ingredients. They're made without eggs and still turns out light and spongy because of curd. It tastes too good and perfect for mid morning snack or even as an evening snack with a cup of coffee or tea.

These muffins comes out mildly sweet and soft, so it's a good choice even for breakfast. Since there's no butter or eggs used, so it does not feel heavy for breakfast and feels quite light when you have it. Vanilla gives a lovely bakery smell while baking and it feels comforting too. I find it easy to pack in snack box also.

About Eggless Vanilla Muffins

Eggless Vanilla Muffins are soft and fluffy small cakes made without eggs, using curd as the main ingredient. It's one of the simplest bakes that can be made with just few pantry things like flour, sugar, oil and curd. The muffins will rise well and stays soft even after cooling down.

The texture of these muffins are soft, and has a bit moist inside not dense. They're not overly sweet so you can enjoy them plain or add something if you like chocolate chips or chopped nuts. Sometimes I even try with orange zest or little cinnamon when I want change in flavour.

Among many eggless bakes I've tried, this is one of the most reliable one. The combo of curd and baking soda gives a nice lift and makes the crumb light and soft. The top don't turn golden much but the inside cooks fully and remains soft.

Eggless Vanilla Muffins Video

I usually bake these on weekends or when I feel like making a small treat without much effort. My daughter enjoys these plain and sometimes I send in her snack box too. It keeps well for 2 days in room temp so I bake a batch and keep for busy mornings.

I loved the texture of the muffins and it stayed soft even for the next 2 days. This is sure one of the easiest and fluffiest muffins that I've baked so far. This tasted just like the bakery muffins both in taste and texture minus the eggy flavor. If you are looking for a easy, quick and soft muffin recipe then this will aptly fit the bill.

Eggless Vanilla Muffins Ingredients

• Homemade cake flour - I have used this as the base here. It gives a soft and tender feel. If you don't have cake flour, you can make your own batch in just few minutes.
• Sugar - It gives the sweetness to the muffins. I used regular granulated sugar.
• Thick curd - I have used thick curd instead of eggs. It makes the muffins moist and also helps to bind everything. Avoid using thin or sour curd.
• Baking powder - This helps in puffing the muffins. Make sure to use fresh baking powder for good rise.
• Baking soda - It reacts with curd and gives an airy texture. You can test by adding it to curd - if bubbles come, then it's good.
• Cooking oil - I used flavorless oil, it keeps the muffins soft and moist. You can use sunflower or rice bran oil too. Avoid strong smelling oils.
• Vanilla essence - I have used this for flavor. It gives a lovely smell when baking. You can try butterscotch or almond essence too if you like.

Why This Recipe Works

• It's very easy and needs only basic ingredients.
• The muffins has a light, airy and soft texture.
• This recipe requires No eggs or butter.

How to make Vanilla Muffins Step by Step

Preparing cake flour

1.First measure 1 cup flour(maida) - 110 grams.

2.Using 1 tablespoon measure scoop out.

3.Level it using a spatula and remove 2 tablespoon flour from it.

4.Now take 2 tablespoon corn flour that is 16 grams. Level and measure.

5.Add 2 tablespoon measured corn flour to the flour. So it is basically removing 2 tablespoon flour and adding 2 tablespoon corn flour to it.

6.Add the cup measure to a sieve.

Expert Tips

• Mixing - After the flour is added do not fold rigorously, just fold in gently without applying pressure.
• Curd thickness - Make sure to use thick and fresh curd. If it's too watery, the batter will become loose and the muffins won't rise properly.
• Filling the liners - I usually fill only till ¾th of the muffin liner. Because it rises while baking, filling till top will make it overflow.
• Baking time - Try not to open oven door before 20 mins. I always set a timer and check with toothpick after that only.
• Sweetness - These are mildly sweet which I prefer. If you want it bit more sweet, just increase sugar to ½ cup.
• Scooping tip - I use ice cream scooper to fill the liners. It gives same size muffins and bakes evenly.

Serving and Storage

Serve them warm with tea or coffee. This also goes well with milk for kids snack. You can store them in an airtight box at room temp for 2 days. For longer, keep in fridge and just warm it slightly before serving. The softness stays even after storing.

FAQS

1.Can I replace oil with butter?

Yes you can, but the muffins may feel little heavier. Oil keeps it more soft and moist.

2.Can I make this in a cake pan?

Yes, you can use loaf pan or any small cake tin. Just baking time will be more.

3.Can I skip curd?

No, curd is the main ingredient in this recipe. So I would recommend not to skip it.

4.Why my muffins didn't puff up?

Check your baking soda and powder - it should be fresh. Also don't over mix the batter.

5.Can I add choco chips or nuts?

Yes sure. Just fold in about ¼ cup chocolate chips or chopped nuts into the final batter before baking.

Eggless baking was not my forte, but after I found this eggless chocolate muffins recipe on YouTube on this beautiful channel and tried it twice, things have changed for good!

If you think that eggless muffins or cakes do not rise enough, this recipe will prove you wrong! These eggless chocolate muffins rose like a dream, making a super-fluffy & beautifully soft internal texture.

Why are these Eggless chocolate muffins special?

Since the time I have started a ‘no-sugar’ (or ‘low-sugar’ to be more realistic!) diet, I have minimized the frequency of baking cakes or any desserts for that matter!

Otherwise how would you be able to resist the home-baked sweets which are just too good to not eat!

But on a fine morning I started craving for something deep dark chocolatey which is not too sweet but has that bakery style texture. And it was too strong a craving!

So I started searching for that dreamy chocolatey bite and these eggless chocolate muffins appeared with all their glory! And it was simply impossible to resist not making them immediately!

After ages I baked these sinfully decadent chocolate muffins which turned out exactly how I desired and relished them with all my soul!

At the same time, I had to remain mindful of my weight loss journey where I have put in a lot of hard work and as you know too much of these can instantly add extra pounds on your scale!

Hence I had to keep a check on my craving for these goodies; so I distributed half of them among my neighbors (hopefully they liked them as much as we did!).

This way I could enjoy my home-baked eggless chocolate muffins without overdoing them way too much! Absolute win-win!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO MASH BANANA?
The easiest and fuss-free way to mash banana is using a bowl/plate and a fork. Just peel the bananas, add them in a bowl and mash it with a fork or a potato smasher. Alternatively you can also grind it or blend it using a blender or food processor. But this creates an extra work of washing this equipment after use. It is not necessary to mash the bananas completely smooth, but if you like it completely smooth then use a food processor.

HOW TO STORE THESE BANANA NUT MUFFINS?
Allow the muffins to cool down completely. Place them in an airtight container.

Sure! You can use 7 inches cake tin. Bake at a preheated oven at 180° C for 30 to 35 minutes or a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.

WHAT NUTS ARE BEST IN THIS RECIPE?
You can use mixed nuts like I did though it depends upon your palate preference. It’s amazing with pecans or walnuts in these muffins. The texture and flavor of nuts pairs well with the tenderness of the muffins and sweetness of the bananas.

CAN I OMIT THE NUTS?
YES! The recipe will still work even if the nuts are omitted. I make it nut-free sometimes and it just turns out amazing with super soft, moist and scrumptious muffins. You can also replace them with some chocolate chunks or chips to make chocolate chip banana bread.
