Ingredients

Units Scale
Dry ingredients:
  • 2 1/4 cups oat flour
  • 1/2 cup finely ground blanched almond flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
Wet ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp water
  • 1/2 cup non dairy milk (I use almond)
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • zest of 2 lemons
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla
Add ins:
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries + extra for topping
Glaze (optional):
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tbsp milk or dairy free milk for vegan
  • 2 tsp lemon juice (optional)
  • lemon zest (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a muffin pan.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together all dry ingredients.
  3. In a medium bowl, add all wet ingredients and whisk together. Then add the wet ingredients to your dry ingredients. Whisk until incorporated and there’s no flour patches. Fold in the blueberries.
  4. Pour batter into the muffin pan (can fill almost to the top to make 12 muffins). Place some extra blueberries on top. Bake about 20-25 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
  5. Place pan on cooling rack to cool for 30 minutes then remove muffins from pan to finish cooling on rack (about 1 hour). Once cooled, drizzle with icing or glaze on top if desired.
  6. To make glaze: whisk powdered sugar and milk together, add lemon juice if you want it to have a lemon flavor. Adjust powdered sugar and milk to get your desired glaze thickness.
