  • 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp xantham gum
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Notes

Inspired by Bunner’s Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins in their cookbook, “Bunner’s: Simple & Delicious Gluten-Free Vegan Treats”

  • Muffins last 3-4 days or up to a month in the freezer, if you can stay away from them for that long.  You can crisp them up if eating them the next day or after you’ve pulled them from the freezer, by putting them in the oven for 5 mins (or 10 if you’ve just pulled them out of the freezer) at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
