Oat Flour Morning Glory Muffins

Ingredients

• 3 whole Eggs
• ¾ cups Unsweetened Applesauce
• ¼ cups Plain Yogurt
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
• 2 cups Oat Flour
• ½ cups Rolled Oats
• 2-½ teaspoons Baking Powder
• ½ teaspoons Salt
• 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Ground Ginger (optional)
• ½ cups Raisins
• 1 cup Shredded Carrot (about Two Carrots)
• ½ cups Chopped Walnuts
• ½ cups Unsweetened Flaked Coconut
• 1 whole Lemon, Zest Only
• ½ cups Honey

Preparation Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375ºF. In a mixer or mixing bowl, add eggs, applesauce, yogurt and vanilla extract. Mix until combined. In a separate bowl, stir together oat flour, oats, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and ginger. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and mix until combined. Add the remaining ingredients (raisins, shredded carrot, walnuts, flaked coconut, lemon zest, honey) and mix until the batter is uniformly incorporated.

Lightly oil a muffin pan with grapeseed or olive oil. Fill the muffin holes to the top (oat flour does not rise as much as wheat flour) and bake for 13 to 15 minutes or until the muffins test clean.
