Ingredients

For the Muffins:

  • 1 cup Ube puree
  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup Granulated sugar adjust to taste
  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 large Eggs for best results
  • 1 cup Milk whole or non-dairy
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Instructions

Instructions:

  • Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
  • Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  • Step 3: In another bowl, mix the ube puree, eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth.
  • Step 4: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently fold them together using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  • Step 5: Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
  • Step 6: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Step 7: Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
