recipe adapted from Simple Green Meals by Jen Hansard

1 cup almond flour
1 cup oat flour (120g oatmeal pulsed in the blender)
2 T ground flaxseed
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp sea salt

1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup avocado oil
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract (or 1/2 tsp vanilla extract and 1/2 tsp almond extract)

1 apple, peeled and grated
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a muffin pan with paper liners or grease well. Mix together all dry ingredients in a bowl. In another bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, oil, eggs, and vanilla.  Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until combined, then add the grated apple and walnuts and stir until combined.

Fill the muffin cups three-quarters full. The batter does not rise while baking so they will not overflow.  Bake for 22-25 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
