This is the prefect vegan breakfast recipe for someone who needs a healthy & filling plant based breakfast on-the-go! These tasty muffins (or donuts, if you use the right pan!) are super simple to make ahead of time for some easy vegan food prep, and take with you on your adventures throughout the week.
There are only a few steps to this recipe, which is why it is so easy!
1. Add ingredients.
2. Blend.
3. Bake.
That is it, my friends =]
You can use whatever shape pan you like. I chose a donut shaped pan, obviously!
Get creative with this recipe and add some nuts, or dried/fresh fruit – I love adding frozen raspberries. You can also substitute apple sauce for any other blended fruit, like pumpkin, banana, or persimmon.
This muffin recipe is a healthy breakfast option because it is:
- High in fiber to improve digestion and keep you going until lunch.
- Loaded with minerals and healthy fats for brain health.
- High in complex carbs, to keep your brain working (your body runs on carbs so don’t skip them!)
- Easy to make ahead! So you won’t have to skip breakfast!
Not only is this plant based muffin perfect for a vegan breakfast, but it is also great to take camping, hiking, and as a healthy mid-day snack.

This looks so good! Can I use other mix ins too?
Of course! Any nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and even chocolate chips!
Thanks for sharing! Do they keep long in the freezer?
Yes they do well in the freezer. I’ve frozen them for about a week but they’re always eaten by then!
What can I sub for flaxmeal?
chia seeds
I’d like to sub date paste. Any idea how much I would need?
Silly question perhaps: Is this calling for 1/2 tsp of cinnamon AND 1/2 tsp of pumpkin spice? Or should it be OR? It wasn’t on its own line, so I wasn’t sure. Thanks. Looks delicious!
It calls for both 🙂
