Muffins!

Tonight I made muffins! I couldn't find my copy of Veganomicon, so I found a basic recipe on the box of Ener-G Egg Replacer. Here it is:

1-2/3 C. all purpouse wheat flour
2-1/2 tsp baking powder
2 T sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp Ener-G egg replacer beaten in 2 T water
1-1/4 cups milk
4 T oil

Preheat oven to 400 F. Combine the dry ingredients in one bowl. Combine wet ingredients in another bowl. But the wet stuff into the dry stuff, mix until combined, and put into a muffin tin lined with those cupcake papers.

Ok, now here's what I did to make these my own, and vegan:

1. I DOUBLED the recipe to get muffin tops!
2. I used white flour because that's all I had on hand.
3. I used Silk Creamer because I ran out of regular soy milk.
4. I added a touch of vanilla.
5. Here's the fun part: semi-sweet baking chocolate, about half a baking size bar, chopped into small pieces; handful of walnuts, chopped; handful of frozen strawberries, chopped! Add these ingredients last, to the blended dry/wet mixture. And, fill the little muffin cups to the very very top! My batch made 13 muffins, if you don't snack on the batter. :)

Hmm, Sounds yummy, except- how does it taste with only 2 tablespoons of sugar? I would put quite a lot more, or at least substitute the sugar w/some (1/4 cup?) maple syrup because you have thicker soy creamer.
