This is a pretty quick and easy recipe for orange muffins that have no dairy, eggs, or butter! I was craving something light and bright and saw I had a huge bowl of oranges to use and decided to try to come up with a muffin of some sort. They turned out pretty good although the texture is not like a regular muffin because they have no butter but they are still really good and hit that sweet note I was looking for!
Recipe
2 Oranges
1T Flax Seed Meal + 3 T Water (Egg Substitute)
1/2c Unsweetened Apple Sauce
1/4c Truvia
1c Oat Flour
3/4c Oats
1t Baking Powder
1t Baking Soda
Topping: 2t Splenda Brown Sugar, Pinch of Cinnamon, 1T Chopped Pecans
*Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor and pour into muffin cups, bake for about 15-20 minutes at 400 degrees
You can use this flax and water substitute in any baking dish to replace eggs! All you have to do is take 1T of ground flax seeds in a small bowl and combine with 3T of water and let sit for a few minutes until it becomes a thick consistency.
Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture onto the muffins before you put them into the oven for a little extra sweetness and crunch.
The perfect sweet treat for a beautiful spring morning!
