These soft, Best Vegan Chocolate Muffins are deliciously frosted with our Healthier Chocolate Frosting, or just on their own! Make them ahead for the week and keep a batch in the freezer, or (easily) whip them up from scratch any weekend for the best breakfast treat.

We’re always trying something new for breakfast. Sometimes it’s a healthier option like Soaked Chocolate Chip Overnight Oats. And sometimes it’s Chocolate Muffins. There’s room for all kinds of breakfasts, right? I think we’re just the kind of family that loves to eat their daily carbs before lunch.

These muffins are adapted from our Vegan Lemon Blueberry Muffins. So they have a soft, pillow-y, deliciously moist texture – multiplied by CHOCOLATE. Healthy cocoa powder adds the deep chocolate flavor, as well as bringing in iron, magnesium, fiber, and potassium. We chose to leave out the chocolate chips when we made these muffins, but you can add half a cup if you want to turn these into a Double Chocolate version.

How to make Flax Eggs
Flax Eggs are my favorite egg substitute in Vegan Baking. They’re also incredibly easy to make. Simply take 1 tbsp of milled flaxseed and mix it with 3 tbsp of water. Let this mixture sit for at least 5 minutes, or until gel-like consistency. The flaxseed takes on an almost slimy texture (like eggs) that adds moisture and binding to vegan baking.
