Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons pecans if desired, plus additional for topping
- 2 cups oat flour 208 grams
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 8 tablespoons water
- 4 tablespoons coconut oil melted
- 8 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 cup coconut sugar
- 1 cup pineapple crushed, drained
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract pure
- 1 cup carrot grated
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F and spray a muffin tin with cooking spray.
- Spread the pecans on a small baking sheet and toast until dark and “nutty” smelling, about 5 minutes. Roughly chop them and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt.
- In a separate, large bowl, whisk the water, coconut oil and baking powder until frothy. Add in the coconut sugar, pineapple and vanilla and whisk until combined.
- Add the flour mixture into the wet ingredients and whisk until mixed. Finally, stir in the carrots and the pecans.
- Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Once chilled, fill 10 muffin cavities with the mixture, filling almost to the top. Sprinkle more pecans, if desired.
- Bake at 400°F for 5 minutes, then lower the temperature to 375°F for another 11-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let cool COMPLETELY in the pan.
- DEVOUR.
