Ingredients
  

  • 1 and 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 cup + 1 tbsp instant oats
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pinch of cinnamon powder
  • Zest of 1 orange
  • 1/8 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup + 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp plain yoghurt
  • Sliced almonds to top, optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 175 C. Line 6 muffin moulds with cupcake liners or grease the moulds.
  • In a bowl, combine the almond flour, oats, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and orange zest. Give it all a good stir.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey and orange juice until combined, Then add the yoghurt and whisk again though the yoghurt may not fully combine. Pour into the mixing bowl with all the other ingredients.
  • Fold gently to bring the batter together. It isn't a super thick batter but should not be runny either. If you need to, add more oats or almond flour as the consistency of the batter can vary depending on the almond flour you use.
  • Divide equally into the muffin moulds and finish the tops with sliced almonds. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the tops are browned and a toothpick poked into the center of each muffin comes out with only a few moist crumbs, no wet batter.
  • Allow the muffins to cool completely before digging in. Store at room temperature in an airtight tin for 4 to 5 days, and in the fridge after that. Happy baking!

Notes

*You can also use finely ground almonds instead of storebought almond flour. The muffins will be a little coarser in texture, but delicious :)
*Use maple syrup and dairy free yoghurt to make these muffins vegan.
