These hearty vegan and gluten-free muffins remind me of those dark, sweet bran muffins I ate as a child. They are fast and easy to prepare, making them a perfect breakfast or afternoon snack. Try making them the night before and you will have a breakfast waiting for you on the counter in the morning! There are plenty of combinations for adding goodies into these muffins, but my favorite is to use grated carrot, chopped apple, currants, and chopped walnuts or pecans. Sunflower and pumpkin seeds can also replace the nuts in this recipe.
