Ingredients

  • 2 cups oat flour use certified gluten-free oat flour if the muffins need to be gluten free
  • 3 medium apples peeled and shredded
  • 1/2 cup avocado oil
  • 1/3 cup yogurt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the oat flour, baking soda, spices, and salt.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, avocado oil, yogurt, coconut sugar, and vanilla.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix well.
  • Fold in the shredded apples.
  • Cover the bowl and place in the fridge for 30 minutes to allow time for the oat flour to soak up some of the liquid.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease a muffin pan.
  • Divide the batter evenly between 12 muffin cups.
  • Bake for 25-28 minutes, until you can insert a toothpick and it comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
  • Let the muffins cool for 10 minutes before removing them from the pan.

Notes

  • Full-fat dairy yogurt is my favorite for this recipe, though you can use non-dairy yogurt if you prefer.
  • You can substitute brown or white sugar for the coconut sugar.
