I find myself making a lot of muffins.
They’re good for my kids because they fit into a lunch box better than a slice of cake or banana bread.
And they freeze well, for those occasions when we don’t want to eat the whole batch at once.
But my favourite thing about muffins is that they bake quickly, which means you can have a tasty vegan snack ready in just over half an hour.
