Instructions
- Blend the wet ingredients except chia seeds. Fold in chia seeds and let sit for 10 mins to hydrate the seeds a bit.
- Line a muffin pan with muffin liners. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F / 190ºc.
- Add the dry ingredients to the blender and pulse a few times to combine. Alternatively, add and whisk all the dry ingredients in a bowl. Add to wet and mix to combine. The batter should be somewhat flowy but not runny. If too runny, add a tbsp or more flour and mix in.
- Drop the batter into lined muffin pan. Add cranberries or other berries on top. Sprinkle some chia seeds on top (optional).
- Bake for 20 to 22 mins.
- Cool for 5 minutes in the pan then a few minutes on the counter before serving. The muffins can be kept on the counter (covered) for the day, or refrigerated upto 5 days.
Notes
- To make oil-free: use 2 tbsp more orange juice or use some nut-butter.
- To make these gluten-free: In a bowl mix 3/4 cup oat flour, 1/2 cup almond flour, 1/3 cup starch (a combination of tapioca and potato starch works best), 2 tbsp coconut flour and 1/2 tsp xanthan gum. Use 1 1/3 cup of the mix and blend in. Add more if the mixture is too runny. Bake for 20 to 22 minutes.
