Ingredients
- 2 flax eggs 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed + 6 tablespoons water
- 1 cup gluten-free oat flour
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ¾ cup dairy-free chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare your flax eggs in a small bowl or cup and set aside. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 12-tin muffin pan with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, add almond flour, oat flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to evenly combine the flour mixture.
- Add the flax eggs, maple syrup, olive oil, almond milk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until all the dry ingredients are moistened. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes, then fold the chocolate chips into the muffin batter.
- Use an ice cream scoop to evenly divide the batter amongst each cup. The cups will be almost full. Gently, shake the muffin tray side to side to level out the batter in the cups.Bake for 34-38 minutes. Tops should be golden brown and a tester toothpick comes out mostly clean.
- Remove the muffins from the oven and place the tray on a wire cooling rack. Allow to cool completely in the muffin tray before storing or removing liners.
Notes
To store: Keep muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days.
