Vegan and Gluten-Free Orange Muffins

Description

Growing up in Florida and eating Perkins muffins gives you really high expectations of what a muffin should look and taste like. We all know how much sugar is added and just how unhealthy sweets can be. I’m always trying to find or come up with the healthiest baking recipes that also have that same childhood sweetness. Enjoy these vegan and gluten-free orange muffins warm with some delicious vegan butter!
