Equipment

  • Two standard muffin tins
  • Paper liners (20)
  • Mixing bowls (large and medium)
  • Wire rack

Ingredients

  • 1 cup 120 g chickpea flour
  • 3 cups 360 g whole wheat or whole wheat pastry flour
  • 4 tsp ground cumin
  • 4 tsp garam masala store-bought or homemade
  • 2 tsp dried crushed chile peppers
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp fine sea salt
  • ½ cup 128 g tahini
  • ¼ cup 60 ml peanut or toasted sesame oil
  • 4 tsp agave nectar
  • cups 590 ml plain soy, almond, or other nondairy milk

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C, or gas mark 4).
  • Line two standard muffin tins with about 20 paper liners.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, whole wheat flour, cumin, garam masala, crushed chile peppers, baking powder, baking soda, and sea salt.
  • Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the tahini, oil, agave nectar, and nondairy milk.
  • Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, being careful not to overmix.
  • Add extra milk if the batter seems too dry.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
  • Bake for 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • If the muffins brown too quickly, cover them lightly with foil to prevent over-browning.
  • Remove the muffins from the tins and let cool completely on a wire rack before storing.

Yield:

  • 20 standard muffins
