2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 3/4 c. oat flour (certified gluten-free)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 c. coconut oil, melted (or butter)
1/2 c. sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoons baking soda

1/2 c. applesauce (plain, unsweetened)

How to make Apple Cinnamon Oat Muffins
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees. Using a non-stick spray, grease a muffin tin.
Step 2: Place the dry ingredients (oat flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt) in a small mixing bowl. Mix well until combined.
Step 3: Add the coconut oil, sugar, and applesauce to a large mixing bowl. Stir until blended. Then, add the vanilla and eggs. Lightly whisk until incorporated.
Step 4: Into the wet ingredients, add the dry ingredients. Mix well until smooth and even. Fold in the apples.
Step 5: With the muffin butter, fill each muffin tin about 3/4 way full.
Step 6: Combine the cinnamon sugar topping ingredients in a small bowl. Across the tops of the muffins, evenly sprinkle the topping.
Step 7: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 to 17 minutes or until the tops are springy and a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffin comes out clean.
Note:
Keep the muffins in an airtight container and store them in the fridge for up to 5 days.
