They're both nuts. The videos he does with Krystal, they are positively giddy. Charming and refreshing. If I'm in a down mood (say, 2 hours til my eating window for IF) watching him perks me up.
And years later, here I am still making your recipe time and time again. I cannot thank you enough for such an easy, quick, healthy muffin recipe. They always turn out amazing ❤️
I just made your recipe with a few alterations ... I used 1 1/2 cups of oat flour and 1 1/2 cups of almond meal. I added walnuts as the main nut and used a combination of cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla essence as the spices. Thank you so much for posting, they are one of the best muffins I’ve ever made xxx
I always remember it this way... baking powder puffs up the cake, baking soda spreads your cake. Powder Puffs, Soda Spreads! Im trying this recipe right now. thanks man!
Love your videos have been watching for a while. Thought I’d give some of this a try... well it’s 5+ months later I am about 80% vegan and shooting for 100%. I dropped 70lbs and power walk 5 miles a day. I haven’t felt this good in many years. Your videos are amazing keep up the great work, God bless.
@@duboneforme9591 and it's people like you that make people nit want to go vegan or even try and who make me lose faith in the world. And yes, there is such a thing as that. It means, 80% of your time throughout he months, you eat all plants. The other 20% has animal products in it. You knew exactly what he meant. You just wanted to be a twat.
I appreciate you taking the time to write the recipe in the description. It was really cool you showed the nutritional content in the video as well. Thank you. Well done!
The problem with you Derek is that you are so contagiously positive and so sweet that I can't stop binging your videos and it makes me feel like a stalker 🤣😂 Much love to you, Crystal and Coco. ❤️
Really great tasting muffins! I used coconut milk instead of almond milk to make them nut-free (& pumpkin seeds instead of nuts). I also used 2 organic bananas + 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce (instead of 3 bananas). I made them with chocolate chips - obviously! Excellent texture & taste - nobody would know they're vegan & gluten-free. Thanks for this recipe, Derek - I enjoy your videos & your energy :)
Just found this recipe and made them today in the silicon muffin pan and they are by far the best healthy muffins I have ever made ... and believe me I have tried dozens of different recipes. Thank you
Thank you for this video. I made this today but didnt have cupcake trays so I made banana bread instead. 350° for about an hour. It came out delicious, thank you for this video
This muffin recipe is great! Made a batch today, half choc chip, half blueberry, and even though I didn’t have everything listed, i substituted a couple ingredients, and they came out perfectly! Baking isn’t a particular skill of mine lol so I am very happy at how these turned out! Thanks Derek - I am really loving the recipes on your channel atm and am trying lots of things I haven’t made before, things I feel Ive missed eating since becoming vegan. Your healthy, vegan versions are super easy to make and most importantly taste amazing! It’s been hard to find vegan versions of my favourite treats in stores near me, so I’ve had to go without, but thanks to you I now have a kitchen full (and a belly full!) of all the goodies I love 😋👍🏼💚🐷🍪🧁🍌😍 yum!
Just made these! Through in pistachio nuts, walnuts, sun flower seeds, goji berries, raisins, and hemp hearts. Plus I used the flax seed in the recipe like you said. they came out so very, very good! I am a nurse an work 12 hour shifts. don't often have time for a "formal" meal time . This is the perfect grab and go item to keep me going for hours!! Thanks so much!
Don't delay! Make these TODAY! Sadly, this recipe has been on my "to make" list for well over a year. The list of recipes I want to try is always too long but Derek's recipes never disappoint and these little muffins were so darned good, I've already eaten 3! I added 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips and 2 Tbs maple syrup. I love that's it's one of those flexible recipes that we can play with the ingredients so I can't wait to test with coconut flakes, blueberries and a variety of nuts, seeds and dry fruit. It's like granola in a muffin. The house smells divine and I'm thrilled to have these absolutely perfect little treats! Thank you!!! 😘
I have made several types of these muffins out of oats by just blending old fashioned GF oats in my blender. If some oat flakes remain it's no problem at all. I have to say, I do not like chocolate chips in any of them nor do I care for seeds but, I have added applesauce, blueberries, dried cranberries, walnuts, flaked almonds, diced apples and of course very ripe bananas. It's one of my go to recipes for breakfast. I always add the lemon juice directly to the liquid ingredients because, that was traditionally how I was taught.
@@brendaf3132 I'm with you! I've made them so many times and now avoid the choc chips just because I'd rather have natural fats of nuts or shredded coconuts. I like making them in mini muffin silicone molds (they pop right out) and I keep them stored in the freezer so they're always on hand.
I taught myself how to make a vegan butter. Take a 1/4 cup of walnuts, add warm water and blend. It makes a smooth paste that acts very much like butter but is vegan and WFPBNO
Just made these this afternoon and they're fantastic. Love all the contents in them, especially the chocolate chips. And they're "all day' muffins in my world. Doesn't have to be breakfast for these little wonders. Thanks for all you amazing recipes and information. Love your videos!
Chocolate in the morning is Great, I make a great triple chocolate oatmeal, cocoa powder, dark chocolate with next to no sweetener, and peanut butter that has cocoa as wel.. so delicious.
I like your style. You told where you are from but then got right down to the recipe without endless chatter like so many others do. Your ingredients were already measure and well displayed. That will make it super easy when I replay the video to create,this,recipe myself. I really like the macro breakdown at the end too etc.
Love How quick and easy these are! And yet they’re healthy too. This is so amazing since I’m a student and this is so easy to make ahead and then just grab one to go with lunch. Love vids like these. Quick, easy, make ahead and healthy so it’s just fine to eat on an everyday basis. Not like a sugar loaded Müslibar. Sustainable. BIG LIKE FROM HERE
Have made these 3 times in 2 days and we love these muffins! I used vanilla oat milk as I am allergic to most nut milks and they turned out great. Also love watching your inspiring simple meal ideas. Also love how you offer so many ways to alter how you do things. Thank you so much.
Just made these muffins for the third time and I’m so excited to eat them! They’re nice and filling, and so simple and quick to make. I love having some for breakfast! Thanks again for all of your videos!
1 year Vegan on October 1st. Posted my fastest 5k, 10k, 10 mile and half marathon times since making the switch. Going for my first sub 4hr Marathon tomorrow. You got me started Derek and keep me going. Love the food idea videos for sure. Thanks a bunch from Westhampton, New York.
U inspired me to make improv muffins. Just blended up apples, sweet potatoes, maple syrup water lemon and vanilla extract for wet, and your stuff for the dry. Added nuts and cranberries. Didnt measure anything except the oats and baking soda/powder. Turned out great!
*Simnett Nutrition* Question for your next Ask Me Mondays video... Derek, do you think you would've had the same success in gaining muscle mass if you DIDN'T start using the Vivo life protein powder in every smoothie bowl? I know there's a much more concentrated source of amino acids in those protein powders but it's almost like the food we eat only contributes to the energy production rather than muscle recovery/gains? But do you think you could've made those same gains without using Vivo life? Thanks from Australia! :)
Simnett Nutrition your cookie recipe can be used to make oat bars similar to clif bars. Instead of making a cookie shape, you shape them in a bar shape lol, love your videos, I’d love to see more in the future, maybe a new series?!?!?
Thank you Dereck and Crystal you are such an inspiration for the vegan family just made these today and added 1/2 cup maple syrup and 1/3 cup olive oil and pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon 1/2 tbsp each came out super moist and delicious
I believe the science behind the bigger rise for chocolate chip muffins are the fats from the chocolate. Think of puff pastry. What makes it puffy is the butter (vegan, of course!) between the layers of dough. :)
Yes for vanilla AND definitely unsweetened shredded coconut😍. I have it 5 - 6 days a week 2 daily. I do change some of the ingredients often or add things like ginger powder, other spices or dry fruits, maple syrup or local honey, carrots, apples, the options are endless. It's delicious, healthy and we know what's in it and how and who made!
Can’t wait to try them! I already make the 2-3 ingredients oatmeal banana cookies and they’re super delicious, so these will be great! Thanks for the recipe, Derek.
My Coworkers are the same way! They're always counting their carbs! But they do a lot of calisthenics and not the weighted stuff. They said that because of that they don't do a lot of carbs so it hits their fat reserves? I was like Idk about that for sure, but okay.(Maybe with fasting but??? We have amazing people like Simnett who is ripped and so like it makes it hard for me to think counting carbs is ever a good idea)
What a great recipe. I made these with walnuts and raisins. They turned out great. I can eat muffins again without eggs and dairy hurray! Thank you Friend.
Have you tried using other flours such as buckwheat and almond flour? I don’t have the chocolate bits. Can I use cocoa powder? If so how much of it? Merci from Quèbec 🇨🇦
Omg i can not wait to try these! I have a paralyzing disease an im trying get healthy again because i was back on the road to a complete healing an i messed up an stopped. J wont stop again an u r gonna b my biggest help. Thank u so much!
I’m a long time Baker, and here’s a tip for a quick breads like muffins and banana net bread: the less you work the Dell the better. The lemon juice should go in when you put the other liquid in edger dry ingredients on top of that and then mix once. Your muffins look amazing by the way!
As funny as I think Vegan Gains can be (even though sometimes he goes way too far and it's just awkward) these channels are the kind that will actually get people really considering plant based eating as well as veganism, I was vegan in the past for just under a year when I was 17 but my parents found it hard to sustain that as they buy the food, now I'm 19 and planning on going vegan or 90% plant based as soon as I move out after college, you don't spread fake bs saying veganism purifies you, it's can be a healthier way to live and is just ethical and most importantly, sustainable for the future, keep doing what you're doing.
Great recipe, so going to bake this!! The only con would be that Silk almond milk has unhealthy gums and additives. I'd recommend either homemade or bought mlik with just the water, nuts, and/or salt if possible (Whole Foods carry this). Hope y'all enjoying this! So excited to try!
For some reason the inside didn't get baked for me. Only like 1mm of the crust got baked properly. It was in the oven for 30-40 minutes and it looks more brown than in the video. I think the dough's consistency was thicker, I don't know if that could be the reason.
Ok maybe the problem is that I put 50% more flax, 11% more oats in it. I also put more liquid in it(I used water with mixed with coconut milk). I had to convert "cups" to grams and it didn't work out well enough. I didn't watch the whole video before starting and didn't get to the cronometer part.
I've got these in the oven right now. I bake a gluten-free vegan muffin every Tuesday for our community social gathering. I made jumbo muffins in a silicone muffin pan. Hope they turn out as good as yours!
I can recommend live-traps. It's a little container you put some fruit scrapes in, on top comes a mash. They way it's designed the flies can go in, but not out anymore. You can release the flies 2-3 times a day. After a day or two they are all gone... until you have the next batch from fruit again 😁. I'll see if I can find a link, due to my bad explanation :). Edit: Something like this: www.thoughtco.com/humane-homemade-fruit-fly-trap-127896 I bought it as finished product in Germany, but it's nothing special and has plastic, so building one yourselves sounds good!
Oh and one other tip is to wash your bananas when you get them from the shop. Apparently the eggs are just sitting on the banana. But since I got the trap I stopped doing that, because it didn't help all the time and it's annoying to do.
I’ve found handheld vacuums work super well - in the morning I shake the fruit, suck ‘em out of the air when they fly up and you can let them go outside!
I have a real problem with them, I put some apple cider vinegar in a little bowl with a couple drops of dish soap and leave it out and they're gone by the day's end
These are the ingredients that I created for my son’s pancakes. I use more milk, vanilla and menus the baking soda. He loves them. Thanks for the information!
You’re killing it in the kitchen! Your videos help a lot of people to see that living a whole food plant based lifestyle can work amazing even as an active person who puts healthy stress workouts on the menu. I’m starting to prep for a half marathon and more and I often reference this channel. Those muffins will do a lot for the long runs without the crazy crashes from eating processed foods/sugars. Thanks again for giving hope to us 40+ active people!
These have been absolutely delicious. This is the second attempt and making them and I used unsweetened cacao instead of chocolate and they still turned out great. The Recipe Rocks! I also used no sodium baking powder and compensated by adding a little vinegar and the lemon juice.
Oh my God thank you! I am vegan and recently had to go gluten free for my health so this is a gem of a recipe! I just made these and I am shocked at how easy it was. Minimal ingredients, no butter or oil! I'm shocked at how awesome they turned out!

Mmm, way late to the party but walnuts and unsweetened dried cherries would be equally delicious instead of chocolate chips

Derek always remember to show that you take the pit out of the dates
People that don’t know are going to think you put them whole.
Muffins look good 😋
This needs to be higher for public and blender safety!
They were likely pitted dates.
Yes!!!
Lol! Been there done that! Lesson learned :)
It’s because he bought without the pit. They do sake it

im gonna eat this for dinner. Dont judge.
Aww. Will try your version. I feel excited 🤗🤗🤗
Definitely going to try it. Might even add some protein powder, or peanut butter powder.
Yum, I bought some peanut butter powder and haven't used it yet, sounds good in here! I'll try adding some to part of a batch, thanks!
Great idea, not sure how either would work, might want to add another banana as powders will dry the batter up!
Simnett Nutrition. For sure. I'd just replace some of the oats by weight.
Derek your energy is contagious!
Add one teaspoon of pure vanilla extract it will bump it up a notch.
Yes, would have loved to, we don't have vanilla right now. It is hard to find non alcohol vanilla that isn't crazy expensive!
James Bedus Good idea
Simnett Nutrition try dollar stores. That’s where I found mine.
Costco
@@DrCh0ngo non alcohol ones are at the dollar tree?
These were delicious!!!! Definitely making them again thanks

Do You think instead of making 12 muffins Could i do one big loaf? And then cut slices? I only have one silicon loaf form.
The grandkids and I enjoyed this recipe. The muffins were very tasty thank you.
As funny as I think Vegan Gains can be (even though sometimes he goes way too far and it's just awkward) these channels are the kind that will actually get people really considering plant based eating as well as veganism, I was vegan in the past for just under a year when I was 17 but my parents found it hard to sustain that as they buy the food, now I'm 19 and planning on going vegan or 90% plant based as soon as I move out after college, you don't spread fake bs saying veganism purifies you, it's can be a healthier way to live and is just ethical and most importantly, sustainable for the future, keep doing what you're doing.
Already made these 3 times!! Awesome 🤗
Veggie burger recipe!?
One day! I want to create a bangin' one for my next ebook!
Great recipe, so going to bake this!! The only con would be that Silk almond milk has unhealthy gums and additives. I'd recommend either homemade or bought mlik with just the water, nuts, and/or salt if possible (Whole Foods carry this). Hope y'all enjoying this! So excited to try!
You said 3 tablespoons of cinnamon instead of 3 teaspoons, good job you list them on screen as you do it.
When i introduce Simnett channel to my friends and family, I always share THIS video!
For some reason the inside didn't get baked for me. Only like 1mm of the crust got baked properly. It was in the oven for 30-40 minutes and it looks more brown than in the video. I think the dough's consistency was thicker, I don't know if that could be the reason.
Ok maybe the problem is that I put 50% more flax, 11% more oats in it. I also put more liquid in it(I used water with mixed with coconut milk). I had to convert "cups" to grams and it didn't work out well enough. I didn't watch the whole video before starting and didn't get to the cronometer part.
I've got these in the oven right now. I bake a gluten-free vegan muffin every Tuesday for our community social gathering. I made jumbo muffins in a silicone muffin pan. Hope they turn out as good as yours!
Simnett, do you get fruit flies from your bananas/how do you deal with them? as soon as I see one I panic and throw my bananas in the fridge.
You can do that. They aren't going to hurt you though. Usually with the cold weather they disappear.
I can recommend live-traps. It's a little container you put some fruit scrapes in, on top comes a mash. They way it's designed the flies can go in, but not out anymore. You can release the flies 2-3 times a day. After a day or two they are all gone... until you have the next batch from fruit again 😁. I'll see if I can find a link, due to my bad explanation :).
Edit: Something like this:

I bought it as finished product in Germany, but it's nothing special and has plastic, so building one yourselves sounds good!
Oh and one other tip is to wash your bananas when you get them from the shop. Apparently the eggs are just sitting on the banana.
But since I got the trap I stopped doing that, because it didn't help all the time and it's annoying to do.
I’ve found handheld vacuums work super well - in the morning I shake the fruit, suck ‘em out of the air when they fly up and you can let them go outside!
I have a real problem with them, I put some apple cider vinegar in a little bowl with a couple drops of dish soap and leave it out and they're gone by the day's end
These are the ingredients that I created for my son’s pancakes. I use more milk, vanilla and menus the baking soda. He loves them.
Thanks for the information!
Vegfest hype
Oh yeah!! Making muffins all day there! :p
Simnett Nutrition haha, I’m sure you had loads of time to do that! xD
Very tasty and so pretty. Must enforce portion control starting tomorrow. Thanks.
Totally agree that when you make great, delicious and healthy food at home, there's no fun buying food outside.
I'm rather impressed at how fast he puts the batter into the muffin pan. :)
Some good looking muffins!
You’re killing it in the kitchen! Your videos help a lot of people to see that living a whole food plant based lifestyle can work amazing even as an active person who puts healthy stress workouts on the menu. I’m starting to prep for a half marathon and more and I often reference this channel. Those muffins will do a lot for the long runs without the crazy crashes from eating processed foods/sugars. Thanks again for giving hope to us 40+ active people!
These have been absolutely delicious. This is the second attempt and making them and I used unsweetened cacao instead of chocolate and they still turned out great. The Recipe Rocks! I also used no sodium baking powder and compensated by adding a little vinegar and the lemon juice.
Great personality and excellent muffins.
Oh my God thank you! I am vegan and recently had to go gluten free for my health so this is a gem of a recipe! I just made these and I am shocked at how easy it was. Minimal ingredients, no butter or oil! I'm shocked at how awesome they turned out!
I am so glad you like them!
