Time 1h25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 16

canola oil cooking spray
14 Medjool dates, pitted and chopped
1 cup soy milk
⅓ cup water
2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
1 cup oat flour
¾ cup millet flour
½ cup tapioca flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ cup applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 small apples, peeled and diced
1 cup roughly chopped walnuts
½ cup raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with parchment paper liners; spray liners with cooking spray.
  • Place dates in a bowl; cover with soy milk. Let stand until softened, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Mix water and flax seeds together in a separate bowl. Let stand until thickened, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Combine oat flour, millet flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and baking soda in a bowl. Mix well.
  • Place the soy milk-date mixture, applesauce, and vanilla extract in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. Transfer to the bowl with the flour mixture; add the soaked flax seeds. Mix with a spoon until no dry spots remain. Fold in apples, walnuts, and raisins gently. Spoon batter into the muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and tops begin to brown and form cracks, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool for 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
