Moist, extra chocolatey, and easy to make, this recipe for Vegan Double Chocolate Muffins will have you craving more! Loaded with chocolate chips in each bite they will be gone in no time!
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Then prepare a 12 cup muffin pan with liners or by greasing the pan and dusting with flour. My recommendation is to use a nonstick muffin pan and liners.
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl. Then add the sugar and whisk the dry ingredients together.
In a separate bowl, mix together the oil, almond milk, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla.
Then add the liquid ingredients to the flour mixture and stir just until moistened. Be careful not to overmix the batter. You don't want large clumps of raw flour, but the batter will be slightly lumpy. Now, gently fold in ¾ cup of the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan making sure to distribute it evenly among 12 muffins. Then top the muffins with the remaining ¼ cup of chocolate chips. Now, bake for 19 to 21 minutes at 375°F. Check at 19 minutes. When the muffins are done a toothpick or cake tester will come out clean. It's okay to have some melted chocolate on the tester just not raw batter.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before moving them to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
The muffins will keep covered at room temperature for about 5 days or stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.
