Baking for Breakfast

I love baking at breakfast time. We don’t really have the tradition of popping out to the bakery for breakfast in the UK – one that is still so important in France and Germany. However, there’s nothing better than that fresh from the oven smell, first thing in the morning. 

Muffins are our staple weekend breakfast treat, and although it may sound like an effort, I find them really quick and easy to whip up first thing. These easy peanut butter muffins are vegan-friendly and packed with protein. I first made them on a holiday in West Cornwall and they are just the thing to set you up for a energetic day outdoors. 

Vegan Peanut Butter Muffins

I made these to my usual vegan muffin recipe and reduced the fat. I find that a ratio of half spelt to plain flour seems to work best. If you do not have spelt four, however, just use plain flour instead.

As always with muffins, the key is to get organised at the start and not to over-mix the batter. Remember, these are easy peanut butter muffins, so less is more. Lumpy batter is what you want, so fold it gently and no more than 15 times. 

How to Make Easy Peanut Butter Muffins

Step one – Heat the oven to GM 5/190°C/375°F. Sift the flour and spices and get rid of any big lumps from the sugar by rubbing them between your fingers. Have a silicone muffin tray ready or put your muffin cases into a tray, ready to go.

Step two – Put all the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. 

Step three – Whisk together the oil and milk. Add these  to the dry ingredients along with a dollop of peanut butter. Fold together gently to make a lumpy batter. Mixing should take no more than 15 folds.  

Step four – Put your mixture into the cases. Then push a small spoonful of peanut butter down into the top of the batter in each case, so that it is almost submerged. Sprinkle a few oats on top. 

Step five – Bake for 20–25 minutes, until risen and golden brown. Eat easy peanut butter muffins fresh from the oven, while the peanut butter is still oozing!

    These look lovely – and it’s a great idea to use oats. I bet that gave them a lovely extra texture

    I always feel a bit iffy about sweet peanut recipes but whenever I try them I’m always converted. These look really yummy. Great use for leftover peanut butter too!

    I must, must MUST try these! PB in baked goods (or out, come to think of it) is one of my favorites! I’ve done PB muffins in the past but they were way more fussy than this. . . these sound perfect!

    I do like your muffin recipes. You should make a muffin recipe book. These must be delicious and just the kind of treat you need with coffee.
