Ingredients
1 cup oat flour
1/4 cup almond meal
1/4 cup gluten-free all purpose flour
1/2 cup cane sugar or coconut sugar
1 ripe banana
3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 tablespoon baking powder
1.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup natural vegan sprinkles plus more for topping
Vegan frosting optional
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a muffin pan or use liners.
2. In a blender, blend the ripe banana, almond milk, vanilla extract, and sugar on high until the mixture is completely smooth.
3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, almond meal, gluten-free flour, and baking powder.
4. Pour the wet blender mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the vegan sprinkles.
5. Divide the batter into the muffin pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 of the way full.
6. Bake for 22 minutes. Remove from the oven and let them cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes.
7. Optional: Once completely cooled, top with vegan frosting and extra sprinkles.
Notes
Make your own oat flour by blending rolled oats on high until a fine powder forms.
For 100% refined sugar-free muffins, use coconut sugar and omit the sprinkles.
Do not frost muffins while warm or the frosting will melt into a mess!
If you don’t have liners, greasing the pan with coconut oil or non-stick spray works perfectly.
