Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a standard muffin pan with liners.
Combine the soy milk and apple cider vinegar in a measuring cup and set aside to curdle. This is your "buttermilk".
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and cornstarch. Add a small amount of flour to the washed berries (still wet) to coat.
Pour in the soy milk/vinegar mixture, canola oil and vanilla. Stir with a large spoon to combine, but do not over mix. Some small lumps are fine.
Fold in the blueberries, gently. Using a small measuring cup or ice cream scoop, add batter to the liners in the pan 3/4 of the way full. Top with a few extra blueberries and a sprinkle of coarse sugar, if desired.
Bake for 10 minutes. Prepare egg wash.
