cinnamon oat muffins // Oil free & Gluten-free

in , , , , ,

The one thing I do have to say about muffins is that they are very underrated.

These gluten-free, dairy-free, and oil-free muffins are simple and delicious! With only 8 ingredients they are simple to whip up and enjoy immediately, or store for meal prep!

Using oat flour is great, but don’t feel the need to go hunting for a GF oat flour brand. All you have to do is blend regular oats until a fine powder forms and voila, you’ve got oat flour! When you use oat flour it's good to let your mixture sit for a few minutes to absorb some of the liquid. For this recipe make sure you set aside the mixture for about 10 minutes.

Another nice thing about this recipe is that it’s customizable! I left the flavors simple so that you have the freedom to add in chocolate chips, blueberries, cranberries, etc. If you want to leave them plain, the cinnamon, maple syrup, and applesauce give it a great light flavor that is sure to please everyone!

Serving size 1 muffin

time 40-45 minutes

Makes 9 muffins

  • 2 eggs

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce

  • 1/3rd cup Dairy Free unsweetened yogurt (I used Kite Hill)

  • 2 cups oat flour (Make your own by blending whole oats until a flour forms)

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • 1 tsp baking powder

Directions

Pre-heat your oven to 350F and grease a muffin tin.

If you are making out flour at home, blend up just over 2 cups of oats until a fine powder is reached and set aside.

Mix all of the wet ingredients together and then slowly add in the dry ingredients.

Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes.

once thickened add the mixture into your muffin tin about 3/4ths of the way full.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, let cool and enjoy!
