  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup light olive oil (or avocado, melted/cooled coconut oil)
  • 1/4 cup non-dairy milk (such as cashew, oat, soy, etc.)

  2. Mix dry ingredients: In medium bowl, mix together dry ingredients and set aside.
  3. Mix wet ingredients: In large bowl, whisk together wet ingredients (except blueberries) until combined.

Notes

FLOUR – If using oat flour, use 1 cup and omit milk. The muffins won’t rise as much and they’ll look a little different than what’s pictured, but they’ll still taste great! 

SWEETENER – Honey may also be used but muffins will brown a bit more. I do not recommend subbing a dry sweetener as it will affect liquid ratios

TO MAKE VEGAN – Replacing the two large eggs with 2 TBSP flaxseed meal + 1/3 cup of water is a good egg-free substitute.
