Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups (180g) Certified Gluten-Free Oat Flour
- 1 cup (100g) Super-Fine Blanched Almond Flour
- 0.5 cup (60g) Vanilla Plant-Based Protein Powder
- 1 tsp Xanthan Gum
- 1 tbsp Baking Powder
- 0.5 tsp Baking Soda
- 0.5 tsp Fine Sea Salt
- 2 tbsp ground flaxseed meal
- 6 tbsp warm water
- 0.5 cup Pure Maple Syrup
- 0.33 cup Melted Coconut Oil
- 1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Zest
- 0.25 cup Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1 tsp Vanilla Bean Paste
- 1.5 cups Fresh or Frozen Blueberries
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or silicone molds. In a small bowl, whisk ground flaxseed meal with 6 tablespoons of warm water and let sit for 5-10 minutes until thickened into a gel.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, almond flour, protein powder, xanthan gum, baking powder, baking soda, and sea salt until no lumps remain.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour in the prepared flax eggs, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla bean paste. Fold with a silicone spatula until just combined.
- Gently fold in the blueberries. If using frozen berries, do not thaw before adding to prevent the batter from discoloring.
- Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup nearly to the top. Bake for 22 minutes until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
