Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prep a 12-cup muffin pan with muffin/cupcake liners.
  • In a large bowl, mix the flours, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • To a smaller bowl, add the wet ingredients -- aquafaba, applesauce, milk, maple syrup and vinegar. Whisk together to mix well. Add the cherries and mix.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until incorporated. Don't overmix.
  • Divide the batter equally among the muffin cups. 
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then remove the muffins to a rack to cool.

Notes

  • For an even more chocolatey variation, stir in ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips.
