I've tried so many gluten free recipes over the past year. I'm sorry to say that most of them are not good. And some are worse, horrible! So when I made these muffins and they actually came out I knew I had to share the recipe with you.
For this recipe you will need to grind some rolled oats or buy a good quality oat flour. There is very little sugar in this recipe which is another reason why I like it so much. And with the addition of nuts they are especially satisfying.
Dry Ingredients:
2 cups old fashioned oats, gluten free
2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
Wet Ingredients:
4 very ripe bananas
1/2 cup unsweetened apple juice
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
Grind the oats into flour using a Vitamix or other grain grinder.
Put all dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl.
Puree the wet ingredients in a food processor just until smooth. Do not over blend.
Pour wet over dry ingredients and mix with a spatula. Do not over mix.
Fill muffin pan with papers, or use cooking spray, and fill 2/3 full. Bake at 350 degrees for 22 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin should come out clean when done.
Makes 12 muffins. These freeze well.
Options: you could also add some fruit to this recipe. Perhaps some fresh blueberries, or some finely grated green apple. You will need to increase the baking time however.
