Ingredients
2cupsOats(gluten-free if needed)
1¼cupsCashew Milk (or other plant-based milk)
1cup Apples (chopped, small cubes)
1/2cup Apple Sauce (I use unsweetened)
2tbspGround Flaxseed
1/2tspBaking Soda
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
2tbspDate Syrup (maple syrup works too)
1tsp Cinnamon
1tsp Vanilla Extract
2tspApple Cider Vinegar
1/4-1/2tsp Salt(optional - I dont use it, but I know some people like a little saltiness)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 F and line or oil a muffin tin for 12 muffins. Add the ground flax to the 2 cups of milk mix together and set aside. In a large bowl, add the oats, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt (if using) and mix together. Then, add in apple sauce, milk+flax mixture, date syrup, vanilla and apple cider vinegar. Stir until everything is combined. Then fold in apples
Transfer the mixture to the muffin tin. They don't rise much. Bake in the oven for about 25 minutes. Check with a toothpick to make sure it comes out clean. If it's not go for another few minutes. Allow it to cool for just at least 10 minutes before eating. Store leftovers in the fridge up to 4-5 days.
