" Copy Cat Chic founder and editor Reichel R. Broussard, made these tasty vegan strawberry muffins for daughter Arden&amp;#039;s birthday celebration at preschool, since teachers discourage cake. Prepared without eggs, butter, and traditional dairy milk, these morning treats are anything but tasteless and boring. These cornbread muffins are moist, light, and highly flavorful.            #vegan strawberry muffins for Arden&amp;#039;s birthday celebration at preschool tomorrow. Like the strawberry hearts? They discourage cake in favor of muffins. Are muffins really much healthier? ;) A photo posted by Reichel Broussard (@copycatchic) on Feb 25, 2014 at 9:10pm PST      Reichel&amp;#039;s vegan strawberry muffins, adapted from Yummly:   Makes 6 muffins   INGREDIENTS  \u00BD cup cornmeal \u00BD cup whole-wheat pastry flour \u00BD teaspoon baking soda \u00BD teaspoon salt \u00BD cup applesauce \u00BD cup soy milk \u00BC cup agave nectar (Substitute with maple syrup to make these muffins macrobiotic too) 2 tablespoons canola oil \u00BE cup chopped strawberries (or other berry), plus sliced strawberries for the top DIRECTIONS1.
