Servings: 12 people

Ingredients
- 4 apples - any variety works, I used both green and red
- 2 carrots
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup dairy free milk
- 1/3 cup coconut sugar
- 6 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups oat flour
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon apple pie spice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Prepare one muffin pan by spraying with oil. You can also use a nonstick muffin pan in which case you will not have to grease it.
- Chop your carrots and apples into chunks, removing the core and stems. Add these chunks to your food processor and pulse until they are a grated texture.
- Whisk all wet ingredients and let sit as you prepare your dry ingredients. The flax will thicken the mixture slightly as it sits.
- Whisk all dry ingredients well, making sure there are no clumps. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in your wet ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fold in your food processed carrots and apples, again do not overmix.
- Spoon your muffin batter into your muffin cups. You want to fill them very high as these muffins will not rise very well on there own.
- Bake in the center of your oven for 35-40 minutes or until they are not wet to the touch. Once they are done baking let them sit for 2 minutes on the counter. Then carefully flip your muffin pan and dump the muffins upside down on a clean towel. This will ensure the muffin bottoms do not become soggy as they cool. Allow muffins to cool upside down on a towel for another 3-5 minutes before enjoying.
Notes
Enjoy these muffins warm with a small amount of dairy-free butter.
They are best kept in a sealed bag or container in your fridge. To reheat, cut in half and broil.
